Yeah? You don't seem like someone who'd advocate for widespread destruction or anything like that.

[trifocal]

Oh! Yes, that is true. I would not allow that to happen.

[ brightening again. ]

[outdistanced]

...What did you think I meant?

[trifocal]

Well...

Our god is quite wrathful, to tell the truth. Legends have it that its rage would sometimes lead it to take its anger out on the island, bringing about great disasters.

But our goal is not to spread such wrath, but to channel it, that it may be used to help people rather than harm them.

[outdistanced]

Channel wrath? How are you supposed to do something like that?

[trifocal]

Most often... through the use of our divine relics.

While some religions look to their gods for moral guidance and salvation, we mustari aspire to take the power of the gods into our own hands, that we may use it to save ourselves.

[outdistanced]

Save yourselves. From what, the gods' wrath?

[trifocal]

From outside threats, usually. People, monsters, humans.

Or, in the case of my brother... He possesses a relic that can affect the weather, and can ward away even thunderstorms or heatwaves.

[outdistanced]

Oh. It does sound useful. [ hm. ] How do you keep anyone from using it in another way, though? Like for their selfish reasons.

[trifocal]

Most outsiders do not have the knowledge to use our relics properly, but...

[ ...... well, ]

There are indeed some who try to seize them for themselves.
