*Kicks you in the gut, then elbows you in the back of the head as you double over*

@Nemeses

*Grabs your arm as you try to elbow me and flips you over my head, slamming you into the ground. I follow up with a swift, ground-breaking blow to the forehead as my hand becomes coated in purple energy*

Well, when your ex wife reveals she's actually the current ultimate enemy, tortures you in a timeless chamber for the equivalent of 30 earth years, you become a DarkSoul and revert back to normal, the best you can hope for is times like these moments of peace.

@souleaterfan320

There's not really such thing as an ultimate enemy, if that makes you feel any better. All you can do is turn away from the pa-

*Slams my fist into your face as I suddenly appear next to you*
About time.

@Nemeses

*Stumbles to the side, then turns to face you*
Hmph.

Alright then. Duke it out to your hearts' content.

@Techspert

I'm not sure if-

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Does that mean that the neural paths can be activated, but deactivate or even heavily weaken the disorder paths? Or are the two one in the same?

<Snipped quote by Nemeses>

Nearly.

@Techspert

I couldn't tell you. I never learned much about that. The concept never seemed important to me because I knew I'd never get involved in it anyways.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

So it's like a neural disorder that's activated?

@Techspert

Based on my understanding, yes.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

What actually drives someone to evil? Like I mentioned before, there is no effect without a cause.

@Techspert

Special features in the mind of those capable of using the Hidden Elements. Things I never took the time to learn.

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Why does this happen?

<Snipped quote by Galvanize>

Hm?

@Techspert

What do you mean?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Who's the devil in this scenario?

@Techspert

I only mean that in the sense that it is crossing a point of no return. He's essentially made it so that not following the will of "nature" has serious repercussions on his mind and body. It's really just self-induced insanity.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Valiance>

Is the latter part avoidable?

@Techspert

It's the equivalent of selling your soul to the Devil, more or less.
