i guess....

from relics you CAN'T resist?

how do you and the others resist them?

[extremeteenbible]

I'll admit, the odds were stacked against ya...

it's a long story. we're sort of ...immune to their thrall.

[h2no]

i have time
no-one's explained it yet.

HERE WE GO

[extremeteenbible]

well, ya see...
There are seven grand relics.
and there were seven of us, who created them.

[h2no]

[he already hates this.]

right

[extremeteenbible]

we had no idea the relics would wreak such destruction.
I'm sure if we did, we never would've done what we did, and spread them out across the world.

there's more to the story, but it's not really mine to tell.

[h2no]

i don't understand
why did you make them?

[extremeteenbible]

[ Well, it looks like he's gonna have to tell the story after all. ]

we were being chased, by something horrible
Over and over, it would come to a new world, looking for a powerful force called the Light of Creation, and it would tear the world apart in its search
killing everything and everyone

we decided to split the Light of Creation into seven parts, seven relics. to stop the thing chasing us from getting it.


Now, don't go talking to the others about this, Especially Lucretia. it;s kind of a sore subject.

[h2no]

i won't

[this is too much for him, and he regrets asking. it makes sense why the relic wanted him to use it's power so much, though, if that's what it originated from.]

why did it end up so dangerous, though? why did it made me hurt people?

[extremeteenbible]

the Light, it
it wants to be used.
makes people crave it. Hunger for it.

it's a powerful thing. hard to control, hard to predict.

[h2no]

it sounds bad
like the sort of bad i wouldn't expect something like that to be

[extremeteenbible]

it's a complicated thing.
we chased it for 100 years, and i still don't understand it.

[h2no]

[this... didn't bring the answers he wanted, but he can't blame merle. archie trusts he's been honest, even telling him things he has absolutely no obligation to.]

thanks merle

[extremeteenbible]

course pal.
I dunno how much help that was, but
i hope it'll help you find peace.
