A weird thought regarding deity in Lunar
Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2012 1:55 pm
Well I was wondering what the origins of the god Zophar and goddess Althena could be. It seems that Althena could give up her power as goddess, while this was not a possibility among almost all games and myths. Its also worth noting that any mortal beings could claim Althena's power by manipulating certain tricks to become gods/goddesses. The existence of Lucia made it an even more intriguing question, she was referred to as the princess of the blue star... Is Lucia a goddess, and if so gods/goddesses actually have ranks considering Lucia is not as powerful a goddess as Althena? Why is Lucia able to claim Althena's power? And was Althena already the beloved goddess prior to the crisis of blue star? All those mysteries can be explained with the following hypothesis.
The idea is that gods/goddesses were initially mortal beings. Not necessarily human, they were not born as gods/goddess but became deity following certain events. My theory is that Althena was originally a human but acquired the power of creation after completing a mysterious quest that turned her into a goddess. She used this power to fight against Zophar and sealed the evil god, while destroying the blue star in the meantime. It was also this power that Althena granted Princess Lucia eternal life, which effectively turned her into somewhat a celestial being. The power of creation, on the other hand, could be transferred from one to another by performing certain tricks unknown to the majority of people. If, on the other hand, the goddess decides to give up such power, she will become mortal again and the power dissipate. Nonetheless, the dissipated power could be gathered by another mortal being if he/she wishes to claim him/herself deity. This hypothesis could explain the following phenomena:
1. Eiphel and Ghaleon were able to manipulate Goddess Althena, making themselves gods(You do not see how a human capturing a Greek, Roman, Norse God/Goddess could turn a mortal into deity, do you?).
2. Althena could appear in many reincarnations at will, and also eventually gave up her power as Goddess(Hard to imagine if she was born a Goddess and could still give/lend her power easily).
3. Ghaleon waited 10+ years until a few months prior to the story began to take his first action as magic emperor(he was searching for the way to transfer Goddess' power into his).
4. Lucia was able to claim Althena's power after knowing the goddess no longer existed on Lunar, the power of Althena still existed despite the demise of Althena/Luna herself).
5. The fact that no one mentioned Althena's history prior to the Blue star's destruction, there's a possibility that goddess Althena did not exist back then and that the previous God/Goddess failed his/her people.
Please lemme know if you have any thoughts regarding this topic, Id be glad to hear.
