- <html><body>Hierarch Kekropus:<br>
- Hmm...something like that happened, eh?<br>
- ...<br>Then I should tell you the truth...<br>
- Long, long ago, we were created to be living weapons with which the Giants might oppose the gods.<br>
- That is the secret of our race.<br>
- Because of this, we were sealed between dimensions for ages...<br>
- (Kekropus stares of into space, apparently deep in reminiscence.)<br>
- A long, long time ago, following the great civil war between the gods, the Giants began to become disillusioned
- about the gods' rule. They built a mighty empire, developing thier science to a level that the world had never seen.<br>
- To protect themselves from the gods, they also began to develop weapons capable of harming the gods themselves.<br>
- They used what they had discovered during the war of the gods to unlock the secrets of life itself.<br>
- We, the Kamael, are the result of the Giants' experiments to create life independent of the gods and their wheel of fate.<br>
- Although we have not the raw power of the Giants, much less the gods, because we were created outside of the natural order
- we, more than any other creatures, are able to oppose the gods.<br>
- Just as even the mightiest beast can be felled by a drop of deadly poison, so we were created to be a poisoned
- dagger to fell the gods themselves...<br>
