In Path of Exile, Why All Gods Fall Asleep?
Age of the gods
Wraeclast is an extremely ancient continent. The historical details of the flood and famine era have long been turned into dust, and it will always flow like smoke in people's subconscious. What we do know is that in that ancient age there was an era of gods, and human beings, men and women, could become gods.
Those gifted and beloved by others quickly grasped the secrets of eternal life and were promoted to God. However, deification is not such a simple matter. Just like having a child, this process is full of pain, tragedy, and sacrifice, and the thing most often sacrificed is the human nature of the person. This is the deification. Those who pursue eternal life will find themselves eventually becoming monsters. However, a god named "sin" ended everything.
Birth of Sin God-Hate and Sin Giant
In the distant past, on the southeast of the island of the Wraeclast continent, the so-called "Oriyas" existed. They have developed their own civilization and have an important place in history. "Good" and "sin" were born here.At an untestable time, a mother gave birth to a pair of twins, who had "good" with red eyes and "sin" with blue eyes. Goodness has an honest and pure heart, and never disobeys the mother's instructions, while the sinful heart is full of lies and desires, and always ignores the mother's ding.
When a mother eats bread, good can always get what he deserves as his reward; sin can only get a small piece of bread to let him know that his behavior is not liked. However, such punishment makes the desire for sin stronger. One time in the market, sin stole a fish in front of his brother and lied to the guard. Later, he even beat his brother and asked the other to keep his mouth shut. Good is unwilling to succumb to fear and therefore comes forward to testify. The mother and child finally believed that "sin" could no longer be corrected with rules and remedies, and that only the sin of his life could be purified with fire.
People from all the villages came to watch the crime of being tortured, watched the flames engulf the sin, listened to his screams before death, and even smelled the smoke from his mouth. Sin filled their lungs and hearts. Goodness sees sin taking root in the bodies of men, women, and children. These people first turned their backs on each other, and then fought aggressively. Both friends and brothers fought each other until one of them fell down. The deceased's skin, muscles, and bones became a giant, full of sinister and hatred.
Good Will-Brotherhood
When the crime of becoming a giant stood up, he knew that the village had fallen into ruins. He was deeply distressed, so he hoped that some of them would be removed from the flames. As the town and the giant fell into the sea of fire, the ashes of sin covered the light of the sky. Shan in the homeland of ruins vowed: no matter where the ashes of sin fall, his purification fire will wipe out the seeds of sin.With this conviction, Shan established the Templar monk culture in Oria, leading them to drive out the sins of the world. Good sacrifice a part of himself, cast a desperate and cruel weapon "bloom of purity" with blood and gold to suppress darkness and turn chaos into order. The seal of purity is a symbol of justice in the world, at least the justice identified in the good heart.
Shan appointed the first saint leader Marsarios and gave him the seal of purity. The staff had the sacred power of Shan, allowing Shengzong to use him when needed, although it was needed. Time, but in fact, when the righteous believers need it, the well-being of the entire people is never considered in good terms. The document has the power of the Seal of Purity, in addition to being used to expel sin, but also to those found guilty or ungodly.
The chaotic father of the Karu gods once tried to invade Oria. At that time, the waves crashed against the shores of Oria. The waves told of hunger and called for longing for the evil spirit. Chicago and his people followed. The waves rose, bringing death and depravity, but the pure power of good happened to restrain Chitaph's chaotic power, so the good descended the fire, devouring the evil and the city together into ashes, and Chicago ran away in a hurry. , But was still sanctioned by the good, and fell into the realm of earth, stones, and curses. This is "the victory of good."
Although good is devoted to clearing the sin and chasing the ashes of his brother's sin, whenever the flame of his purification falls, sin will always regenerate from the embers. In the long course, the goodwill become more and more aggravated, and jealousy will be hatred, and then slowly Losing humanity, and his eyesight all the worse the situation. In the end, Oria was reduced to ruins, and millions of lives were lost in the hands of goodness.
Redemption of Sin-Gods Are Drunk
After leaving Oria, sin settled on the land of Valkras. Most of the gods in the current temples have met or understood each other, but the Valkras continent he saw in front of him was an extremely miserable world. The gods conquered each other, plundered resources, and mercilessly and cruelly enslaved their people.
Even the deities, who were initially bright, good, and intelligent, and guided the progress of the race, gradually lost their humanity in the process of eternal life. In ancient times, man and woman can become gods, and through the beliefs of others, they can grasp the secret of eternal life and be promoted to god. But this process is full of pain, tragedy, and sacrifice, and the thing that is most often sacrificed is the human nature of the person, and that is the deification. Those who pursue eternal life will find themselves eventually becoming monsters.
The weaker ones still have human gods. They are afraid that they will be swallowed by the higher gods. Sin and they form a union of gods. However, these gods slowly lose their humanity. Destroyed his own group, which also included the love of sin, Hurricane Queen Carlohan.
But it is strange that sin seems to be the only deity that can preserve humanity. He emits different energies, is less hostile and empathizes with the sufferings of people. In any case, he has never forgotten his side as a human. Ironically speaking, sin can be reborn from the embers of human sin, as a god, but has never lost humanity, or is it in itself human?
But in any case, sin has witnessed this tragic continent. He hopes to give mankind a chance to pursue peace and shine in this world, instead of merely becoming slaves and playthings of the gods, so sin creates a seed. It is called "Dark Embers". Although the production process of Dark Embers also leaves some by-products that are full of misfortunes, sin believes that human beings cannot move forward without making these mistakes.
The Dark Ember is a pure, undiluted corrupt essence. Sin buried this corrupted seed deep in the ground of the Ruler's Hall, nourishing it, and witnessing his maturity. The Dark Ember finally grew into a giant beast, and the seed of dark embers is the dark core of this beast. The power of the beast comes entirely from this dark ember. Its corrupting energy can soothe the gods, continuously absorb the power of the gods, and pull them. Nearly eternal sleep.
At this point, the era of humanity has officially begun.
