{{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|The lump of limestone mixed with hardened spinal fluids that carry memories is the Sacred Artifact that binds Balor's body. As someone who brings death everywhere, it's supposed to be a thing that restricts his freedom, yet Balor seems to accept them for some reason. Balor has never spoken as to why that is, but it seems to be deeply connected to his work as the Representative for System Tir na Nog. The shadow that hangs in the background when Balor's left eye is open is a former dragon known as Crom Cruach. Tir na Nog's System of Substitution is said to implement eternity by having the old dragon give birth to a new one and having the two switch places to continue on. He's prone to being seen as frightening, but he loves grandchildren so much that he has a side of him that would cherish them deeply. He hides intense emotions against the auctioneer who sold him off as a commodity.}} | {{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|The lump of limestone mixed with hardened spinal fluids that carry memories is the Sacred Artifact that binds Balor's body.

{{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|When Balor closes his eyes, he thinks of the past long gone and of happier times that might have been. When he opens them, all he can see is the sight of his grandson he could only ever see in the gunpowder smoke filled battlefields. He who attained everything by himself through battle was alone, isolated. Friends he could trust or people he could give his heart to were never things he could wish for. Then the prophecy that said his blood grandchild would one day come to strike him down. At this time, the King of Giants dreamed of boasting of his grandson and doting over him like a sweet grandfather. Perhaps his unguarded superiority this time around is bringing surprise to those who know his usual level of strength. But just like that fairy tale king's case, is there anyone who can possibly admonish Balor, who fears nothing? In any case, he probably has no intention of caring about other people's opinions. It's much more important to him that he continues whispering his boundless love to the warmth he holds within his arms.}} | |||
