Enoch's epilogueartifact / weapon / spearOut here, the lonely fall in the company of those bound by the purest need: survival. Find this truth. If not in your heart, in your mind. If not your mind, then your soul--the deepest part of you that connects to the most basic truths. Know this, understand it, live it. Find those likeminded survivors you can look to as kin. Only then can survival be within reach, because to walk the Multiverse unbound is to invite death.

History/Lore:
The Final Epitaph is a spear closely associated with the Ennead "Raa," who is said to have wielded this weapon during the Creation Saga against the Emanation who threatened to destroy the peace in the galaxy. These rumors were true. Raa' did in fact wield Enoch's Epilogue, the Sun Spear, a weapon blessed with his power that he pitched down from Elysium to any point in the galaxy. Obscure legends say that Raa' smote the first home-world of the Reclaimers, Providence, with the Epilogue and abolished all life on its surface. Repenters and survivors of the divine attack said that it appeared as a soaring comet across the sky for three days and three nights before it descended upon Providence like a pillar of light.
Appearance:
A spear that is made with filigrees of gold and bronze to create a heart-shaped head, named after Ra's favorite Annunaki. It is categorized as a spear, but its way of being is closer to a wand. Its three lithographs respectively represent Elysium, the Material Plane, and the Netherworld. It exemplifies the world's way of being by having each one of them rotate in opposite directions. The "cosmos" is thus represented by matching all three of these representations. Everything together represents the Multiverse. While it can normally be seen when it is not in use, when it is being thrown, it becomes engulfed in white Light.
Abilities/Traits:
-Godsend: Throw the spear as it roils with scorching white Light, the force alone enough to shatter the air around it, creating a noise much like a heartbeat as it flies. It is said that whatever the Epilogue strikes, the area upon impact undergoes a process that can only be described as returning to the Cosmos. When it is returned to the Cosmos, it becomes what it was before existence; pure energy, it is then absorbed by Enoch's Epilogue to bolster its effects upon returning to its wielder. You know that this effect is in place when whatever it strikes first illuminates with cracks of white light, vibrating in place before being entirely evaporated.
-Passive; Incinerating Light: True to Godsend's ability, objects that are turned to pure energy will flutter back to Enoch's Epilogue and be absorbed into the spear for repurposing. One could dip into this energy as a reserve to fuel techniques, or one could literally wreath the spear in this energy and infuse it with one's Light. By doing so, you will essentially be turning Enoch's Epilogue into a wielded star if enough energy is absorbed. It will be too bright to look at, to hot to encounter, and too powerful to dodge through conventional means.
Catalyst:
*Must also have tribute from Ra, at least up to 50%.
-Essence Repurposing: Once an object's composition is broken down and turned to pure energy, it will flutter back to the Epilogue in the form of the object's essence. This is only true when using this technique, for reasons explained later. If Godsend were used on a dragon, for example, then the entire dragon will be turned to pure energy overtime, and the energy that returns to you will be in the shape of soaring dragon. Rather than absorbing this energy back into Enoch's Epilogue, it can be reharnessed for whatever purpose one might see fit. This technique is extremely powerful because it is entirely subjective to the creativity of the wielder to assume the "essence," an object has and will release after being disassembled by Godsend.
