Civilization and Culture
History
Celestials forgot how to be all-loving and all-power, and so clung to Humans like parasites. They shared their host body like a puppet master – at least that’s how the Humans saw it. There were some who thought a life of peace and healing, preying and reflection was a worthwhile calling. But most people still saw them as the failures they had become – the Ascended. The Ascended shared their human body with a melded soul of their own and that of a Celestial. In return, the Celestial imbued the host with the powers of healing and of their vast knowledge. They were one being with no pull or push, it was harmony of two essences with good intensions. Their work often led to heal the sick, defend the weak, smite the wicked, or instil a religious morality that those who were lost could find solace in.
