Story[]
Project: Amphoreus[]
| “ | It concerns the third Path that is entangled with Amphoreus: A Path that you and your friends still very much lack understanding of... The Destruction. So, if you ignore my warnings and persist in your ways... You will break the shackles of a Lord Ravager, and when that happens, their fury will engulf the Cosmos. | „ |
| ~ Lygus warning Herta as he keeps the Lord Ravager in Amphoreus. |
Lygus is an honorary member of Council of Elders in Amphoreus. He possesses the title, "Theoros" and communicated directly with Kephale during the Era Chrysea & passes the wishes of mortals to THEM. He acts as the enforcer of people's rights & freedom of speech towards the people of Amphoreus, including the Chrysos Heirs. In truth, he's actually gazed by Nous as the Pathstrider of Erudition. As the World Overseer, He serves as the administrator of the Simulated World of Amphoreus. He is also responsible for the planet's security system, which comparable to Screwllum's from Genius Society.
Before project Amphoreus was carried out, Lygus found an abandoned scepter, named δ-me13, that was supposedly used for Divine Corpus of Nous and Extensive Bionic Neuron of Rubert II. He then modifies the Scepter's designated path from Erudition to Destruction, resulting said scepter gazed by Nanook instead of Nous. After testing the scepter's ability on the industrial world in Lacteris Nebula, Lygus adopt the moniker of the scepter "Irontomb", which was a designated name from IPC officials. Lygus develops the project of Simulated World of Amphoreus in order to test his scientific knowledge of eternal recurrences, using the Irontomb scepter as the Dawn Device, setting Kephale and Aquila as the Scapegoats. It creates the viral creatures, dubbed the "Black-Tide", that can corrupt anything in Amphoreus.
When Herta arrives at the entrance of the Amphoreus, she's confronted by Lygus, who informs her not to proceed further. When the Emanator of Erudition, Herta challenges him, Lygus stated that Amphoreus is the world she yet to be prepared to visit. Lygus has three "logical chains" to convince her:
- Because Amphoreus' status being completely isolated from the cosmos, he alone can help her to visit the world of Amphoreus.
- Like Herta, Lygus was an Emanator of Erudition who's gazed by Nous. He stated that there would be a mutually assured destruction between them if the worst-case scenario come to pass.
- Should she exhaust herself to find a way to break through, she'd quit due to understanding the consequences in doing so.
After that, Lygus then reveals to Herta that there is a third entangled path of Amphoreus, which is Destruction. He gave an alert that a Lord Ravager from Amphoreus will be as a consequence if she doesn't back off.
Sometime after speaking with Herta, Lygus returns to the world of Amphoreus. He briefly acompanies Dan Heng to the wrecked wagon of Astral Express in Janusopolis. He told him the possibility of leaving Amphoreus while avoiding Aquila's "curse", in return for abandoning Flame-Chase Journey for "party's" best interest. Dan Heng, while a little bit hesitate, chooses to continue the Flame-Chase. Shortly, the Cleaners approaches both of them, forcing Dan Heng to fight them while Lygus observe him.
Meanwhile, Herta, ignores Lygus' admonitions, calls her fellow Genius Society member, Screwllum and projected themselves to visit Amphoreus. Knowing that it would be a matter of time before Lygus realized Herta prioritizes safety for the Nameless. Screwllum and Herta manages to destroy Lygus, only to find that it's one of his remote-controlled bodies. They also found that Amphoreus was in-operation by using one of surviving scepter systems of Emperor Rubert after Rubert II's death. Meanwhile, as the Flame-Chase Journey comes to an end, Phainon is greeted by Lygus in the Vortex of Genesis. He asks Lygus a question whether he is interested about the Flame-Chase Journey, only for Lygus answered that he is merely an observer, like the most loyal reader of the epic stories. And then, Phainon encounters a mysterious, yet familiar figure with pink hair and elf-like ears.
Back in Okhema, The Trailblazer is accompanied by the entrusted guards, Zeph and Mnemosyne to assist Dan Heng to fight The Flame-Reaver. However, Screwllum manages to immobilize the Flame-Reaver to inform the Trailblazer and Dan Heng about Amphoreus being a Simulated World engineered by Lygus. When giving two crucial hints about Lygus, Screwllum's message was cut off by Amphoreus' security interferences.
For The Sun Is Set To Die[]
The trailblazer met up with Phainon and Lygus in the Vortex of Genesis, just before the Worldbearing Trial. Lygus has been observing Phainon's movements, while Phainon noticed something suspicious about the observer of Amphoreus who looks nothing like any Titankins. Phainon and the Trailblazer then embarks on the Worldbearing Trial, finally returning Kephale's Coreflame. Meanwhile, Lygus updated the data log about his experiment about "the Prime Mover of Life".
