"Yes, you heard correctly." Before Blake asked to confirm what had just reached his ears, Lynn gave that direct answer.
"But…?" And with just that, he was once again experiencing the need for answers to fully understand, and as if she was already aware of what would happen, Marjorie interrupted Blake before any questions came out of him.
"I didn't explain it in detail before since I didn't see the need, so let me take the responsibility of telling you about that situation." There was a small trace of apology in Marjorie towards Blake while the last part was a kind of request for Lynn.
For her part, Lynn had no problem with Marjorie taking the initiative to explain, plus she might learn something new that she hadn't anticipated. So, without much time passing, Blake and Lynn's attention was now waiting for what Marjorie would say.
"First of all, everything Lynn said is a general but correct explanation of what the era of disconnection was, but it is somewhat different if we talk about the catastrophe that struck the world." It was like Marjorie had said a long time ago, Futhark It was a vast and ancient world, but all that represents the ancient era are the few remains that remained of it, or rather, those that were saved. "History defines it in a fairly simple way, a being born from the stars came to our world to destroy everything, his power was beyond common sense to the point that the gods themselves had to band together to confront him, but in the end, they could only seal him to stop him."
As one might guess, Marjorie was not present at that event due to its age, so everything she was saying was what she managed to learn and discover in all the years of her life.
"That being I speak of was known as the legendary golem, no one knows who gave it that name, but in all the records that remain that term is always used to define it, in addition to the fact that the few illustrations represent the figure of what was really it resembles some kind of golem." As was obvious, Blake was simply imagining everything simply, what he had heard up to this moment was not enough for him to understand how it was possible that a golem could destroy the world, but Marjorie would take care of it. "As I said, the term starborn was used since it is said that the moment he appeared in Futhark, he fell from the sky without any warning. His simple arrival had made each of the continents tremble, not only because of the aura of power he transmitted, but also because of his colossal size which, from the same records, said that his fingers could barely be seen among the clouds in the sky filling with darkness the earth when it was placed in front of the same sun."
That explanation was already a little more descriptive, and like Blake, Lynn had to imagine that scene as best as possible, even trying to guess the terror that the people of that time felt at that moment.
"That had put all the guardians of the world on alert, but before they made any move, a large part of Gebu was being devastated by that invader." And as if someone dumped a bucket of ice water on him, even though Marjorie said all this without showing the slightest trace of emotion, Blake felt as if the temperature in the room dropped a few degrees while he unconsciously imagined what the massive destruction on one of the continents of Futhark meant. "His mere presence was creating disasters all over the world, earthquakes with every step he took, coastal cities being swallowed by huge tsunamis, even the residue of his movements and the aura he emanated continuously polluted the runes around the world little by little."
Blake had his own ideas, he thought that the story would lead to a situation where the guardians of Futhark would face that mysterious enemy and that an arduous battle would come that would shake the world, and although that could be the case, Marjorie had not stopped.
"Even though almost one of the continents had been destroyed while all the others were affected because of the legendary golem, the guardians had rushed as fast as they could in the direction of the enemy that had appeared, thus letting the people of that era, in addition to seeing the splendor of what they considered the gods of their world, they also felt that everything would be fine. As Gebu was the continent where the legendary golem had been concentrated, it is not very difficult to imagine that the first of the guardians to confront it had been Ventuswill, but once the others arrived as support, the image that greeted them was that of one of his siblings almost on the verge of death." Maybe even Marjorie had a little trouble believing what she was saying, but it was all part of many stories and records that he had had contact with throughout her life.
Just thinking that one of the most powerful beings in their world, despite doing everything possible against the being that threatened to destroy all known existence up to that point, could not stop it on its own, was enough to fill one with fear or concern even to those who called themselves the bravest and strongest of the time.
"And after that, a fight that lasted long enough to make Futhark's image radically change had begun. The waters of the sea appeared like violent tidal waves, the earth trembled while several mountains were used as weapons, lava seeped between the cracks of the disaster while an uncontrollable fury filled the entire battlefield and the gales with incredible speed devastated everything its step… And even so, there was only one result… Defeat."
