Wings in Chains (Part 10)

"The Rule of Power...? What does that mean?" Adam asked, he was confused since he never heard of something like that before. It sounded like a tradition or unusual law, which wasn't far from the truth.

Osana shrugged.

"I'm not sure, but it's possible that if our world didn't have monsters, the Dead Lands, or the Phantoms, then power would be something secondary. But... in our world, it's obvious. To some it's unfair, and to others, it's a handy tool you can use to solve any issue."
