"Blaspheming the idol of the god, you shall be punished! I will report this to the Emperor!" Groudon's expression darkened as he retreated into the thunderclouds.
The statue itself was nothing special, nor was it a Sealing Sacred Object.
It was a sculpture carved from an "extraterrestrial odd stone" that had landed in the Tuva Empire long ago. Legend had it that hurricanes and thunder phenomena surrounded the strange stone.
The Church claimed that the odd stone was the condensed tears of the Lord of Storms, and had taken the form of a statue for worshippers to admire!
Before the Dark Wave Revival, during the last days, the Church of Storm relied on the "apparent sanctity" of this statue to maintain the faith of its believers.
The theft of the idol was a severe blow to the reputation of the Church of Storm, as other churches would undoubtedly take advantage of the situation to denigrate them!
