I have seen [[Ouroboros]], far, far in the future. You would barely recognize it, covered in flames as it was. [[The Coming Storm|The Storm]] was on all sides... And then... They simply moved on. Once we were crippled, we were beneath their notice. The mighty Ouroboros and [[Mender Silos]] reduced to an irrelevancy.

But then you appeared, full of the power of the [[Incarnate]]s. That is why I am back this far, back farther than the ordinary laws of time would allow. You broke the laws to send me back. You told me to call you once I arrived and give you this.

Mender Ramiel is a hero and villain contact in Ouroboros at coordinates (?, ?, ?). His level range is 50.

Mender Ramiel is the main character in the Incarnate System's Lore page, where he has a conversation with Mender Silos.

Background

Conversation

Mender Ramiel appeared in a flash, kneeling on the Ouroboros platform. His armor was damaged and his clothing torn. Smoke and chill permeated the air. He was weak, but determined. He looked up and saw Mender Lazarus peering at him.

"So you've returned," said Mender Lazarus.

"This is my first time this far back, fool," spat Mender Ramiel. "You always are mixing your continuities."

Ramiel stood up, and strode confidently into the Citadel of Ice and Flame. Mender Tesseract and Twilight's Son acknowledged his presence, but knew better than to begin a conversation. Ramiel walked out to the back balcony and stood before the leader of Ouroboros, Mender Silos.

Silos looked him up and down. "Ramiel, I never expected to see you this far back. Are we not beyond your tether?"

"That is one implication, yes," said Ramiel.

"What news do you bring us? Has the Storm been averted?" asked Silos. His voice was tinged with hopeful anticipation.

"Not entirely, but there has been some . . . ." Ramiel was choosing his words carefully. "Your efforts here in the early 21st century are having an effect."

"To what end?"

"The Well of Furies--"

"Is a myth," interrupted Silos.

"No, it's real. I've seen its effects myself," corrected Ramiel.

"Continue."

"I was sent here as a harbinger. This is the exact time period when it all changes. I believe that the super-powered beings you have traipsing through time are having a profound effect."

"What kind of effect? Good, or bad?"

"Both," Ramiel stated flatly.

"I see," said Silos.

"As you know, the first modern super-powered beings were Statesman and Lord Recluse. After drinking from the Well, which they tapped into via the Fountain of Zeus, they became Incarnates of Zeus and Tartarus. These Incarnates were the two most powerful people on the planet up until now."

"Several things are incorrect about that statement, but go on," said Silos.

Ramiel glared. He had important information for Mender Silos, but like always, Silos thought he knew more than everyone.

"As I was saying, the Well of Furies seems to have awakened once more. It will seek out the most powerful individuals and grant them new powers and new abilities," Ramiel declared.

"The Well has become sentient?" asked Silos.

"More like--directed," replied Ramiel.

"What are the implications?" asked Silos.

"Statesman and Lord Recluse will not be the only ones possessing Incarnate abilities. The most powerful individuals from this point forward will struggle to unlock their inner Incarnate and discover new powers. These new Incarnates have affected the Storm, but we of Ouroboros may have created a different threat through our efforts."

"You can't mean Arachnos?" asked Mender Silos. Apparently, this was a concern of his that had leapt to mind immediately.

"No," said Ramiel. "Something you will find difficult to foresee in this timeline, because it is not from this timeline," Ramiel smugly declared.

Mender Silos thought for literally a second. It was a hundred times longer than he needed.

"So the prophecy is coming to pass?" asked Silos.

"If that is how you would interpret the prophecy, then yes."

"As the tempest dies, so the lightning shatters the mirror, and as the storm skies clear, the reflective shards cut and bleed those who handle them," intoned Silos.

"Yes, I know the prophecy. You made us memorize it, remember?" gritted Ramiel.

"Yet here we are. Alternate dimensions will begin wreaking havoc on this one, spoiling any victory we could ask for over the Coming Storm."

"I hope you have a plan, Silos," said Ramiel.

"Always. We can recruit allies within these parallel worlds, and perhaps bolster our own numbers with alternate versions of super-powered beings, or even alternate Ouroboroses."

"Do not fool yourself into thinking that alternate Ouroboroses will be as benevolent as this one. They could be led by an insane version of yourself for all we know," warned Ramiel.

"Time will tell, Ramiel--time will tell," Silos trailed off.

"While you ponder, Silos, I have a favor to repay. Excuse me for a moment," said Ramiel.

Information

Incarnate Lore Master

Mender Ramiel is known for his knowledge of Incarnates and has recently arrived in Ouroboros. His true past is a mystery to everyone save Mender Silos, who seems to consider Ramiel an advisor of sorts.

Contact Unlocked

Mender Ramiel of Ouroboros has sent you a message through the time stream, requesting your presence in Ouroboros.

Initial Contact

Hello, Character, I am glad you received my message. I am Mender Ramiel, and I am here to help you on your path towards great power. There is much to do, perhaps too much in the time we are given. We must begin right away.

Part One

Briefing

I have seen Ouroboros, far, far in the future. You would barely recognize it, covered in flames as it was. The Storm was on all sides... And then... They simply moved on. Once we were crippled, we were beneath their notice. The mighty Ouroboros and Mender Silos reduced to an irrelevancy.

But then you appeared, full of the power of the Incarnates. That is why I am back this far, back farther than the ordinary laws of time would allow. You broke the laws to send me back. You told me to call you once I arrived and give you this.

Mender Ramiel pulls out a small crystal of ice and flame.

I wanted you to give me... a crystal of ice and flame?

Yes. In it is your memory of our first meeting together, when you came to Ouroboros and sent me here. Use the pillars here to experience it.

You will be as you were then, a mighty and terrible Incarnate, full with the fruits of the Well. I do not know how far in the future that will be... going back this far has disoriented me.

Once you are inside the memory, you will need to rescue me. Just as you did in my past.

Unnecessary Solicitation

Do not tarry, Character. We have a long road ahead of us.

A ruined future

Mission Objective(s)

The memory begins with a ruined Ouroboros and you entering it, fueled by the true power you've tapped through the Incarnates!

  • View your Future Memory
    • Rescue Mender Ramiel

You've watched your future self rescue Mender Ramiel.

Enemies

Temporary Powers

Upon entrance of mission, all player characters and related pets are subjected to the following temporary powers:

Incarnate StoryArc.png Divine Core Oscillation Add Proc: +Unresistable Damage
Incarnate
Your experience has interpreted this power as adding unresistable damage to most of your damaging attacks. How it actually works? You have no idea.
Incarnate StoryArc.png Limitless Radial Freeeem Self +Everything (Special)
Incarnate
The details of this ability are hazy, but from the perspective of this memory... you cannot even grasp the power it grants you.
Incarnate StoryArc.png Paradox Core Eternity Self Untouchable (Special)
Incarnate
It is difficult to sort out the details of this ability from the memory, but apparently it grants you a period of complete invulnerability immediately after a time travel event.
