"Phastos," Druig said. "I need to control the mind of a celestial."
"Ok, get ready for it," Phastos spoke making Arden watch in awe.
"Bracelets? You made us bracelets?" Kingo asked.
"Oh my god I remember this one time this guy gave me a bracelet and I was like 'oh my gosh it's so pretty' and then I lost it," Arden spoke, looking around. "Sorry."
"Anyway. . .so here's a little Celestial 101," Phastos spoke. "Celestials are the most powerful energy generators in the universe. When Arishem made us, he imbued us with infinite cosmic energy to keep our bodies regenerating."
"We already knew that," Arden spoke, walking back and forth, counting the steps it took her to walk from one wall to another.
"The bracelets, in theory, shut down our regeneration process," he continued. "And once that happens our bodies accumulate extra cosmic energy."
"So we are going to be old?" Arden asked. "I mean look old."
"Uh not exactly," Phastos replied. "If the deviants can absorb our energy, what if we can absorb each other's energy as well? If I can find a way to connect us all, one of us could become immensely powerful, pulling the accumulated energy from the rest, forming. . .a uni mind."
Arden looked up since it was so quiet and let out a nervous laugh.
"Why is no one saying anything?"
"Uni, meaning one. Mind, meaning mind," Phastos explained.
"Oh no, we heard you the first time," Kingo spoke.
"Terrible name," Sprite inputted.
"Well brianstorm. . .brainstorm! That's a way better name!"
"No, I invented it, i get to name it!"
"So suppose Druig can put Tiamat to sleep," Makkari signed. "Then what?"
