The tainted is made from seven godly shards fused with a dark shard, (which must be owned by the fuser.)
This soul turns you into a monster.
Able to rip the ground apart. Create oceans and raise mountains.
Though very rare. Only 3 have been made in the past/
why?
1- no dark soul would care enough to die and attempt the chicken effect in order to become a shard.
2- Dark souls cant kill godly souls. They need people to do it for them, Or even use magic to get around it.
3-Not many wish to admit the truth this soul is a reality.
4-When a godly soul is killed, it creates a 9 year radius that a dark soul cannot enter. Thus somebody else must collect the soul and give it to them.
It requires a ton of clever plans, and years worth of magic knowledge.
It makes sense. power isn't easy to gain.
