#rapahel

This theory has been formulated before but let me summarize.

What is this about?

If we read the Annals of Karsus , we learn that there are three items tethered to the mage's powers:

There is a Crown, an Orb, and a Sceptre, each night-alive and with its own power and purpose, and these I call the Regalia of Karsus.

It stands to reason the the mentioned Orb is the same as the one embedded in Gale's chest.

The crown, we are well-acquainted with.

But what of the staff?

We never get to find the artefact itself, but we know of someone who is greatly invested (to the point of obsession) in the topic of Karsus: Rapahel. And when we speak to Helsik, she reveals something interesting:

You and Gortash absconded with it [The Crown of Karsus] - catching the interest of a devil named Raphael. His House of Hope is furnished with a great deal of treasues, many related to Karsus.

Did you find any Karsus-themed treasures while scavenging the House of Hope? No? Me neither. So, maybe there are some more items hidden away in areas we don't get to see.

Raphael has been hunting for the crown for centuries. Enough time to snatch the sceptre while he was at it?

Finally, there is this noteworthy portrait in the House:

We never see Raphel wield this particular staff in-game and it also doesn't resemble the Staff of Spellpower from his secret vault. Granted, Rapahel doesn't look like Raphael either - this portrait is modeled after early-access-Raphael, so maybe the staff experienced a makeover as well.

Nous y sommes ! J'ai enfin publié mon premier chapitre de mon histoire dans l'univers TMNT ! Voici son résumé :

Dans cette histoire réimaginée des Tortues Ninja, nous avancerons dans l'histoire d'un point de vue plus humain à travers les yeux d'April O'Neil. Tout l'univers et ses personnages appartiennent à Kevin Eastman et Peter Laird, je ne fais que m'amuser à réécrire une histoire alternative.

Il est probable qu'il y es une romance dans l'histoire.

Here we are! I've finally published the first chapter of my story in the TMNT universe! Here's the summary:

In this reimagined story of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, we move forward in history from a more human point of view, through the eyes of April O'Neil. The whole universe and its characters belong to Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird; I'm just having fun rewriting an alternative history. There is likely to be a romance in the story.

My take on the Star Wars x TMNT AU I was talking about, featuring the LeoSagi pipeline from Strangers to Enemies to Friends to Lovers to Enemies. I literally have no excuse for this, except that I love the Found Family tag and literally need more Star Wars x TMNT content.

Little summary:

Raph and Mikey were taken away as toddlers by Draxum to become a part of the Jedi Order, meanwhile, Leo, Donnie and April stayed with Splinter to become Mandalorians. One day, they meet again due to a row of coincidences and the family gets caught up in intergalactic drama created by Big Mama, the senator of Hosnian Prime.

(If you like Star Wars please talk to me I need more friends who also love star wars and aren't 27 please)
