One Life, One Goal

Souvenir

Obelisk Piece

You kept a piece of an ancient obelisk that had the ability to absorb the powers of a super-powered being. Unfortunately, there was a fatal flaw in the obelisk, one that was never seen because its creator never had the chance to test it. It reminds you of a time you call...

One Life, One Goal

You met a rather irritated spirit called Alastor, who claimed to have created said obelisk, and that it was now in the possession of the Circle of Thorns. Alastor believed his spirit had been re-awakened once the obelisks had been unearthed. He wanted your help in not only retrieving it, but using the obelisk to absorb the power of one of the heroes in Paragon.

You agreed to help and set out to retrieve the obelisk from the Circle of Thorns; however, you arrived to see the Lost were already there, cutting down the Circle mages. You met with one of the mages, who pleaded for your help in retrieving the obelisk and explained that it was to be used to absorb Synapse's powers. Shortly afterwards, the entire cavern began to collapse, due to strange rock creatures called the Igneous. Alastor was furious, but believed he could still locate the obelisk, as he felt a special connection with the item. He also believed that the Lost were going to somehow use the ritual the Circle had discovered to take Synapse's power for themselves.

You next went into tunnels beneath Skyway City, where Alastor believed the obelisk was currently being moved. You mowed down members of the PPD who were seeking the object and your own arrest, along with the Lost and Igneous, only to find that the obelisk had been moved. The Igneous were fast in digging their tunnels, and you would be unable to catch up with them at this pace. The member of the Lost that you defeated left one key piece of information: where their final ritual was taking place.

With Alastor's help, you went to Grendel's Gulch in the Hollows, where you saw the Igneous had filled the area with lava. Synapse was already out, his powers absorbed into a man named Lemkin. You defeated him and uttered the special words to absorb Synapse's power for yourself. Several heroes from Paragon, along with Longbow, showed up to try to stop you, but you were able to swat them aside with Synapse's power. Unfortunately, there was a grave error that Alastor did not calculate. Because Synapse was not dead, the obelisk was short-circuiting, as his power was being sent into your body while also trying to get back into Synapse's. The obelisk exploded in a flash of light, removing the powers you gained from Synapse.

You left the scene and returned to Alastor, who was crushed that his obelisk was destroyed. He insisted that the two of you split, for now. He believed that there were other obelisks still out there, and that he would stop at nothing to recover them and continue his life's work. Even in the afterlife, Alastor still was focused on finishing the one thing he obsessed over in his life; perhaps getting this artifact into a perfect state will grant the angry spirit his final rest.
