Chapter 20: TDeep Understanding And Mechanics
In their next class, Professor Artemis, a renowned expert on constellations and sponsorship, gave a lecture on the mechanics of the system. She explained that each player in Eternity Online was sponsored by a constellation, a group of stars aligned in a specific pattern.
"The constellation acts as a mentor and guide for the player," Professor Artemis explained. "It grants the player unique abilities and powers, known as blessings."
To unlock these blessings, players needed to increase their synchronization with their constellation. This involved deepening their knowledge of the constellation's mythology, history, and lore. As they learned more, they could unlock individual stars within the constellation, each granting a specific benefit.
"The more stars you unlock, the stronger your connection to your constellation becomes," Professor Artemis continued. "You'll gain access to more powerful blessings and abilities."
Yun-ho, Nova, and Ethan listened intently, their minds racing with possibilities. They were eager to learn more about their own constellations and the blessings they could unlock.
After the lecture, Yun-ho, Nova, and Ethan decided to research their respective constellations. Yun-ho discovered that he was sponsored by Orion, the Hunter. Orion was known for his strength, courage, and hunting prowess.
Nova learned that she was sponsored by Lyra, the Harp. Lyra was associated with music, poetry, and inspiration.
Ethan, on the other hand, was sponsored by Draco, the Dragon. Draco was a powerful and fearsome constellation, known for its wisdom and cunning.
With their newfound knowledge, Yun-ho, Nova, and Ethan were eager to explore their blessings and unlock the stars within their constellations. They knew that this would be a crucial step in their journey to defeat the darkness.
