"This doesn't make sense." Quylla said. "If Guardians really are this powerful, why do they let so many bad things happen? Like the slave collar system that plagued the Gorgon Empire for decades or Balkor's annual culling. How can they just sit there without doing anything?"

"That's a very common misconception. No matter their race, whenever people learn about Guardians, they consider them some kind of benevolent god, tasked with taking care of them. Guardians are not gods and couldn't care less about single individuals.
