[ ...hm. she has a lot to learn, then. she makes a mental note and gives ash a nod. ]
Yes. That's what all god-level items are - items created from the god's own body to serve a specific purpose. Like I said before, the staff is meant to amplify fire magic, though I was still learning to wield it properly when we were brought here.
... Yeah, that sounds familiar. Strength, speed, defence boosts. We have them but they only last a bit.
