Inferno: Battle of Legends
Manuscript 1: Souls
The first discovery of Souls was made in 1973 by the magician of the tower, Azrael Valenforth, a pivotal figure whose name was lost to time. Until that moment, it was believed that magic and power were divine gifts from the gods. Wrong. It came from within themselves
Before this discovery, the Great Interdimensional War had begun, tearing apart the realms of Heaven, Earth, and Hell. Their faith in God diminished, to the point where it disappeared. This was when Valenforth began questioning the origin of everything. His hunt for answers led him to a revelation that would change the course of history: Souls.
There are 3 basic principles
- Every creature possesses a Soul.
- Souls are the source of all things.
- Souls cannot die.
The Soul was the unseen force driving life, power, and existence itself. But what exactly is a Soul? It defies easy explanation. The Soul is an infinite entity in a world of finite creatures.
But the relationship between a Soul and its hos, the creature or person housing it, is far from simple. Each Soul has its own characteristics, likes, dislikes, tendencies, and impulses. These elements can shape the creature it inhabits, influencing everything from personality to abilities. A Soul that aligns well with its host creates harmony, making that individual powerful, balanced, and in control.
However, not all Souls are compatible with their hosts. Some Souls are far too volatile or overpowering. This creates the Soul-Body disease, in which a Soul kills the host, and moves on to another.
There are no exceptions to this rule of life. Everyone, everything has a Soul.
