The runes etched onto the egg were far from ordinary. They were the crux of a malevolent scheme conceived by Greed, a being who had long mastered the art of manipulation. These runes weren't just protective sigils; they were designed to ensnare and consume the very essence of those who sought the egg's power. This egg was no mere artifact but a vessel of profound and unique energy, its potential so immense that only those of exceptional caliber—whether through innate strength or rare qualities—could hope to awaken it. Greed's scheme was a trap woven into the very fabric of the egg's allure.
