“Yes, I second that. It’s madness!”
“Think of the responsibilities we have to face if we did that! No one has ever used that since its existence!”
“We’ll be going against the whole world if we’re the first one to use it! Do you know how huge the consequence will
be?”
……

“Wait. We can’t use it in the name of Shield, nor Zarain!” one man said.
