Though they died, they grew only more powerful by shedding their physical bodies and imperfections; from their corpses, their perfect creation emerged: humanity.\n\nYet, because of their lack of physical forms, they could no longer directly impact the world without the usage of conduits, constructed and powered by their own remains.
