As Kahn pieced together the truth behind the incident, a clear realization dawned upon him. The empires' motives were never about righteousness or the display of divine wrath; it all revolved around his Divine Key.
This coveted core of his held the power to grant their chosen Heroes a surefire chance at reaching the elusive realm of Peak Saint rank, a domain of power that had remained unattainable since the time of Rathnaar Whitlock, the first emperor of the Rakos Empire.
Even Kahn knew that when Rathnaar was still alive during the battle against the Demon God, he was probably the only one capable of slaying such a formidable foe that all the other Heroes in the past 3 thousand years had failed to kill.
But their paths had never intersected, mainly because Rathnaar chose not to serve or worship the Gods when he founded the Rakos Empire.
