Intermission
World of Remnant
Divine Weapons
Okay, I have been waiting to touch up on this one for a while. This will be fun to explain if you're a fan of myths and history, interested in learning the theory of magic or if you're just into weapons and are something of a weapon loving nerd.
(The outline of certain red cloaked girl popped in. "Hey!")
But I kid, I kid. Anyways, if you've read up on the myths and legends of magic surrounding Ancient Remnant, then you have probably read up on a lot of people and objects that were said to be magical and immensely powerful.
But when you hear about a Divine Weapon that's when you should start taking notes.
(The outlines of five people appear with each holding a weapon: )
(A fiery red sword)
(An icy blue spear)
(A green fan)
(And dark grey scythe)
A Divine Weapon is said to be a weapon forged by the Brother Gods themselves, immeasurable powerful and immune to the ravages of time. They don't need Dust as an energy source and with just a mere hint of Aura, a Divine Weapon's power can be activated. A weapon like these can make a one man into a one man-army.
Where did they come from, you ask?
Well that's a bit of a long story.
Legend has it, the God of Darkness heard of some mortal who had a powerful weapon. A weapon so powerful that it could handle anything, even the power of the Brothers.
(A dark humanoid outline was shown, looking angered)
Now when you tell a god that someone's better than them, you can kind of predict where this might lead.
(The God of Darkness held out his hands in a grand gesture and four spheres of differed colored light surrounded him: orange, azure, green and grey)
Determined to be shown up by a mere mortal, the God of Darkness created four weapons that were conduits of magic, able to channel the power of the elements themselves.
A sword for fire.
(The sword was highlighted)
A fan for wind.
(The sword returned to normal while the fan was highlighted next)
A spear for ice.
(Next was the spear)
And a scythe for earth.
(The scythe was highlighted last)
Each of these weapons was gifted to a specific person with the task of challenging this woman and her weapon.
(The five people were then showing staring down a blue colored woman holding a key shaped weapon in her hand. The four charged at her, meeting her weapon in a clash that engulfed the screen in a blast of light)
Only things didn't go the way they or the God of Darkness anticipated.
Sure, the battle was likely spectacular but in the end…
(The blue woman with the key shaped weapon stood victorious.)
The woman was the one who came out the winner. She gathered the weapons and then gave them to four warriors who were worthy and in return they helped her strike down the Demon King who rose up to claim the weapons back for the God of Darkness.
(The woman then faced down a dark armored figure with four warriors standing behind her. They charged at the demon king who lashed out with a blast of fire.)
Their efforts impressed the God of Darkness who allowed them to keep the weapons and in respect to the woman who bested his creation, the God of Darkness ordered his Grimm to never hunt her.
(The God of Darkness stood before the woman and offered a single bow as Grimm surrounded her but immediately backed down.)
As for the Divine Weapons, the warriors kept them and went their separate ways. To this day, it's hard to say if they were ever truly as powerful as the legends make them out to be but one thing is for sure: if one could manage to collect all four Divine Weapons…
(A single human outline was shown with the four weapons surrounding them.)
They would likely be unstoppable.
(The screen fades to black just after the narrator is finished.)
