The Artifact

The Artifact is an odd orb which seems to have unknown power inside it.

The Artifact
The power and supposed world energy resorce for The Ancient's homeworld. To many of those back at Earth, their knowledge of the artifact is completely unknown so they refered to it as The Artifact. Many demons and undead were more likely seen often in the third Castle, to guard the orb. When Etrius touched the Orb, it acted as a distress beacon attracting every demon and monster.

History
Nearing the end of the war with the Ancients and Evils, The Wise One infused all his powers, visions, and life into the Artifact. But the orb's powers had a reverse affect.

When Romanov translated The Wise One's wrightings on the wall, the message it revealed stated that an unspeakable evil was growing and consuming The Wise One.


 * "Its taken me.... Its using me.... Its eating me.... I felt its touch... I felt it grow... and it consumed me.... Death will slay with wings whoever disturbs it. Beware."
 * The warning Romanov read during Etrius and The General's arguments revealed that the Evils would awaken to defend the power source if it is taken.

It is believed that The Wise One has sealed the demon inside the orb before he took his own life. Others believed that The Wise One was corrupted when the demon consumed him. Whatever the truth is, is still unknown.

The Artifact has many powers in which people believe to be The Wise One's strength.

At the end of Castle Repercussion Part D, it was revealed from The General that it is empty.

Trivia

 * Many people have theorized what The Artifact actually does. Many of which doesn't follow up until people placed the peices of the story of Castle together.
