3	In the legend of Astaris religion, it was said that somewhere in this world exists a [[MacGuffin mysterious gem]] [[AkashicRecords representing all knowledge and power in this universe]] named "Codris". Furthermore, it was stated that they who find the stone of Codris and use it will be granted {{immortality}} and [[DeityOfHumanOrigin a power as if they were God]].

5	The existence of mystical Codris can possibly be the solution to the problems engulfing the world of Mel Fera. Mel Fera, where the number of the poor far outweighs the rich.

13	* AwesomeYetImpractical: [[LimitBreak Soul Limit Breaks]] can be viewed as such due to their high dice number requirement to succeed (390% for Lv1, 440% for Lv2, and 490% for Lv3), as well as the fact they can only used once in battle.
