Temple of Tolerance bonus mission

So, at the Temple of Tolerance, there's that one path you go to take the offering to the other altar.

My question is: What is up with the crazy text?? Who is traeg, why does it ramble on about how his blade is going to be willingly accepted into [my] back, etc? Why would the gods judge [me] harshly?

Does anyone else see this, or know what I'm talking about, or am I going insane?

Bump -- Please, I don't want to think I'm going mad.

You're not insane.. I've seen that too. I have no idea what it's talking about..
