− | The Dark One |
+ | The Dark One has the power to kill someone, and use their soul by binding it to an object to give it power. The emotions the person was feeling at the time of their death influence the powers given to the object when bound. Since [[Nikka]] loved her brother Paul, the necklace she was bound to protected Paul and kept him safe. [[Sir Ysla]] hated Paul and wanted to kill him, so the sword he was bound to became very good at killing and Paul was able to use it to great effect.{{book ref|do1|4}} |
