DECIPHER 2 [III] (Ch. 142)

"Tombs?" Raven questioned,

{"Yes, Tombs, picture the Egyptian pyramids, once the Artifacts within rouse their power their Imprinted 'Force' distorts space-time, enacting upon a given area a surreal projection of realism, a vestige of time"} Silver concludes,

Raven's mind struggles to fathom such a incomparable possibility, surely it wasn't so... Then a thought occured,

"Wait, is this by chance related to the test i undertook to become Jotunheim' s wielder?" Raven questions,

{"Similar"} Silver begins, {"The major differences being that was a soul projection, this, what i speak of is an actual imposition on reality, these tests...ORDEALS as the relics call them are far more dangerous, they occur in a Relic or Artifacts habitat, a coalesce of 'Force', incredibly attractive to the NETHERS"} Silver replies,

"So how exactly do they function?, These...ORDEALS" Raven questions with ardent inquisitiveness,

{"Think of it like a play, take Romeo and Juliet for example, to he dropped in the body of Romeo, existing as his bodies new consciousness, you are then tasked to move in relation to acquiring a powerful Relic or Artifact of that time, here is where things begin to heighten in danger, from the moment you're dragged into the Ordeal NETHERS will begin trying to encroach, even with that reality aside the 'World's Will' will begin trying to erode the realm, whomever attains the Relic or Artifact first becomes the game master, that is if the item is claimed before the realm collapses"} Silver concludes,

Raven absorbs the information in silence, his mind working up several questions,

"So how is the body which you're dropped in chosen?" Raven questions,

{"That is totally random, do keep in mind that your current advancement level is retained, the Relics or Artifact however is sentient and will not put it's challengers away from the heart of the conflict"} Silver replies,

"Then what task does the Relic or Artifact set?" Raven questions,

 {"There is none, not until they come in contact with the item, there are many a time when those who reach the item are not deemed worthy, take these Relics and Artifacts like people, each amd everyone having their distinct values beliefs and methods, what i can however guarantee you are the general ones"} Silver replies. Raven holds silence lingers as his mind is put to work,

"Then what are they?, These consistencies" Raven questions in response,

{"Your advancement upon reaching the realm is maintained never rising nor falling, Secondly there is a fixed number that each Relic decides upon and it will fill those slots according to the power of the Shifters present, the third holds that death within the realm is equivalent to true death, essentially you become the items sustenance"} Silver replies,

"That's all?" Raven questions, 

{"Yep"} Silver responds,

"So this means that the older Relic or Artifacts is the more powerful" Raven states his question as more of a statement of fact, 

{"That is correct"} Silver replies, 

"Then whomever this 'Foolish researcher' is is quite a powerful Shifter... assuming they're not dead" Raven follows,

{"That should be accurate"} Silver affirms once more holding silence as the boy descends into heavy though, minutes tock by before he eventually flips to the next page in the book.

BRAIN SHIFTERS

~The path after ZONE, the emergence of the first brain Shifters is a knowledge lost to history, nevertheless it is evidenced to have predated 'HEAVEN'S FALL', the event which is heavily associated to the existence of Relics and Artifacts and more importantly the NETHERS!. 

Alas that is a story i have far too little information on, further research is required, Brain Shifting, at the 'PERFECT ZONE', the ability to Brain shift involved the fine control of the governing body of the human physiology, at ones will they can alter their bodies to be intune with their modus of Shifting, Heat or Cold, eventually this would become a monumental part of the exercise of the abilities of both Relics and Artifacts as well as their 'Force' arts interaction with the item.

Furter research required~

                                  A certain foolish researcher

Force vortex

~This is the core which is created to enact the constant refinement and storage of ones imprinted 'Force' at the 'FULL ZONE'~

Perfect shifter

~An existence existing as a tale of legends, the 'PERFECT SHIFTER', one existing in a state of both Yin and Yang, perfection, the possibility of such a reality is highly improbable, but yet belief reigns, the reason for this?, Simple!, It is possible...in theory, but the nature of Shifters being beings who constant push for the pinnacle of two opposing extremes is the biggest answer to the reason why even with the emergence of modern science and it's methods this remains a fools dream~

                                  A certain foolish researcher.

Raven pauses pondering over the books words, his eyes darting down and widening slightly, next up was the very reason he'd been adamant about the book.

THE FASTEST WAY ONE CAN ADVANCE PRIOR TO THE ZONE STAGES

~One must wonder as it is popularly believed that time and talent determine advancement from this stage, the truth?, That is true, for those who are ignorant, the advancement to ZONE entails the permanent existence of one in Vacuum, a moving point of mass powerful enough to puncture the sound barrier by mere reason of existence through incessant vibrational force. To achieve this one must strain not just their 'Force' cycling pathways or their body but their Imprinted 'Force' itself, they must absorb and hold 'Force' stagnant then attempt to compress, time and such a practice is the only thing that could possibly guarantee maybe not a quick advancement but a quicker one than what natures call would permit why exactly such a cycling technique works faster for some than others is still unconcluded in all certainty and my foolish intuition i believe this yo be apart of a greater technique~

Raven echales, subduing his eager urge to put in practice the author's words, his curiosity over what comes next easily winning out.

THE IMPLICATION OF BEING ATTUNED

~Once one is ATTUNED the said Shifter is able to use his or her arts how they see fit, a defence art become capable of attack, though to a lowest degree, this is mastery.~

                                 A certain foolish researcher 

The Sub Stages Of ZONE

~Similar to every major stage of advancement one must traverse it's sub stages, for the ZONE stages it embodies the encapsulation of all previous stages,

Sub Stage One

MUSCLE

The first baptism of one's by their own soul and Imprinted 'Force' bringing about a qualitative change in their body's functions.

BREATH

The second baptism of one's by their own soul and Imprinted 'Force' bringing about a qualitative change in their bodies ability to convert, conduct and release 'Force'

BONE

The third baptism of one's own soul and Imprinted 'Force'bringing about a qualitative change in the increasing density of ones physical existence as a body of mass whose existence affects the very fabric of reality.

Though there is a leap in physical capabilities between each sub stage it is far from being a clearly definitive factor in battle as many factors apply, nevertheless these baptisms are geared towards the purpose of creating a 'Force' Vortex and achieving the next stage in the imposition of one's will on reality.

 

Relics and Artifacts (Items)

~The existence of these items is heavily associated with the event named Heaven's Fall, said to have been the reason for the Nethers vehement pursuit of this world, these Relics and Artifacts are  conscious tools wielded by Shifters who had attained levels akin to Godhood, the users of such items leaving their being within said items condensing their imprinted 'Force' into them with permanence.~

                                  A certain foolish researcher 

THE DIFFERENCE

~Through the two are items Relics are tools of greater sentience, of fulfilled potential, these tools have cone into contact with a wills core, wat this entails, i am far from certain.~

                              A certain foolish researcher

Searching for why the pupils in 'PERFECT ZONE' are coloured.

~At this instance synchronization between the Relic or Artifacts wielded by the Shifter in question however much are intune with the Shifter pushing him to the rank if Demi God, this phenomenon is only achieved by PERFECT Shifters who are a step away from Godhood.~ 

                                  A certain foolish researcher 

FORGED ITEMS

~these are the creation of those who chose to create within themselves a monster, by destroying other Relics and Artifacts and absorbing their power, by doing this fragments of said Relic or Artifact's shattered sentient consciousness invade their mind, these Shifters have perfect the technique of mind to 'Imprinted Force' Conceptualisation then by gathering enough fragments within their vortex's they create and mold their own items.~

                                  A certain foolish researcher 

HOW ITEMS ARE FORGED

~There is only one path to forging an item, and one path too advance!, Once a Shifter attains Zone the achieve the existence of a Domain, within that domain is the conceptualisation of their 'Force' arts, to forge their desired item they must give form to their Conceptualisation of their collective 'Force' arts, either in form of energy (Enhancement), or physical (Armament), to achieve even the initial step a shard of consciousness from an item is required. For those who chose to follow the way of energy they must create withing their domain laws through conceptualisation and ingrain them through imposition, to grow this concept they require item consciousness which aid their desires concept. Armament, to embark on this path one must give form to their Imprinted 'Force' and ingrain and enact it's forms and concept within their domains.~
