Memoirs of a Lost World

Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Memoirs of a Lost World are a collection of diary-like entries written by Zenio Periclon shortly after the shipwreck of the Arcadia in Dzeia in May, 1608 AR.

Essentially, these are a direct continuation of the Tales of the Arcadia and tell the story of the only nine Khijovian survivors in one of the tribes of the Nywii clan. In addition to reporting a brief account of the shipwreck, Zenio writes a large amount of short annotations on the admired landscape, on the flora and fauna sighted, on the Dze camp in which they were welcomed, and on his peculiar encounters with the native Ńṭhuuḿ.
