The Great Priest had taken years to obtain the green pearl.
He had spent years traveling all around the world, obtaining ingredients and objects he felt held the answer to what he was looking for. Experimenting with them all and improving on failures.
He had wanted to give up countless times, to look away from everything and pretend it never happened. But he still found himself endlessly going through scrolls in the dark, secretly searching through tales of old and acquiring more knowledge about what he wanted.
And so he pushed on, secretly gathering and experimenting, creating and recreating for years until he got the perfect tool; The Green Pearl.
One he was sure could end what he had previously done. One he was certain could wipe out his mistakes.
He had obtained the pearl but never ventured into making use of it. He had put it aside for a while and ignored all that was happening with the wizard of EL.
