<Snipped quote by Artifact>
…May I?
*sticks my hand out and my body begins to glow bright, some parts glowing with a blue matrix pattern*
<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*the staff completes and I grab it, the bells echoing through the room*

*a staff slowly digitizes next to me*
<Snipped quote by Artifact>
I can save you or free you, only if you so choose.
<Snipped quote by Artifact>

*strains as I adjust the flow of radiation absorption, mumbling to myself*

*my body glows blue as I have been absorbing the radiation*
What did it do? Do you know why it came?
