Alan the Stone Writer

Alan the Stone Writer is a legendary character from the distant past. He ventured to many far-flung corners of the cosmos and wrote about his travels.

In Misery of Magic
While he is long gone by the time Emerald arrives, it is known that Alan went to the Domain of Magic at some point, but could not escape from it and subsequently died there. Some of his writing is present in the Remnant and Sorrow Peak where he hypothesises about the true nature of the Domain.

Alan's grave can be found in North Edge.

In Alan's Apocrypha
In the distant past -- sometime before 6001 -- Alan went to the Club System, experienced enlightenment for the first time, and ended up spending an unknown amount of time there. However, while he may or may not have ever been there, Kris states that the story is not a true recount and was not originally written by Alan.
