A shrill piercing voice echoed across the Soulscape, cursing at Xander.
"The Warden has violated the sacred laws of the realm of wandering Souls!
His transgression has stained the memory of the Host Soul.
It is a crime, unforgivable! An act beyond redemption!
And so he shall face the wrath of the Blind Deity who watches over all.
Be stripped of all powers! Suffer like a common sinner!
The will of souls binds you to death!"
Reddish-black lines appeared under Xander's eyes, charring the skin on his face. He felt a sudden weakness in his chest and went down on his knees. The Blind Deity lording over the Soulscape had stripped him of his powers and cursed him for violating the unwritten laws of the Soulscape.
By shattering a Dream Crystal inside the Soulscape, Xander had defiled the purity of the realm, tainting his bloodline. And to punish him for his crime, the deity had shackled his bloodline abilities.
