The following is a passage from the journal of the Kaijin Lord known as the Devout Heretic.
…
I once thought it was odd for there to be religious organizations in a world where people can turn themselves into divinities.
Then again, I had never thought that my own faith would be shaken by the revelation that other worlds existed.
But after spending time facing the forces of the Omninari Empire and meeting various deities and their cults… I can now understand this discrepancy through a lens that makes sense to me: it's a business transaction.
Or, I suppose, it's more accurate to call it a master-servant relationship.
Every aether warrior worth a damn, will do all they can to understand and strengthen the formula that they inscribe into their souls.
However, some warriors are…not so talented in that regard. That, or they end up in situations where their formulas could no longer cultivate without powerful intervention.
Divine intervention.
