The Scar's voice did not carry the tone of something that had suffered pain, nor did it sound like it sought sympathy or pity.
Its voice was filled with passion and reverence—as if that world of Scars were a masterpiece of art.
Cyn merely listened.
The Scar continued,
"Do you think the energy a Scar provides you with is infinite? Do you have any idea how much time and agony Scars endure to extract even a small amount of energy? How much power is consumed simply to protect their domains from being breached by other Scar Domains?"
"That is why being chosen by a Living Scar is exceedingly rare—despite the fact that Living Scars outnumber humans themselves. To them, most humans are failed investments."
"Only when a Scar senses someone worthy—someone who attracts it, someone with shared interests and mutual objectives—does it choose a bearer."
"That is what Living Scars are."
