"What is happening in this world...?"
I stood there in the clearing, my mind spinning. Five affinities? Six? The history, the lore I knew from the game was crumbling second by second.
I was truly shaken now.
When I first learned there were no status screens or 'Paths' in this War of Faith era, I thought I could adapt. I told myself it was just a primitive version of the world. But then Roran told me that the peak of humanity was Grandmaster—not a single Transcendent in sight.
...And now, he was talking about people wielding five or six affinities like it was common knowledge.
Were we even living in the same world?
We weren't just living in different eras. It felt like we were living in different realities.
No—what did he even mean by having that many affinities? This was absurd. It felt like they had no restrictions in the past.
