First off, I have no idea if this is the right place to put this, or any idea as to fixing it, but here goes...

I really like the history made for lusternia on the main page, but I noticed one major inconsistancy...

at the end of the vernal wars thing

Once the magical working was completed, Avechna dwindled into the form of a statue, high atop Mount Shalamar. Of the nine who sacrificed themselves to save the first world, all that remained were nine small stones, living seals that contained the remnants of power that kept the Great Ones trapped.And while all nine seals remain intact, never will a Great One rise again. So came to be the Living Seals:

it says that as long as the seals exist, a great one (i'm assuming it means vernal god, seeing as the soulless weren't that great) can never be risen, but in the Elder Wars, everyone was trying to use the nexii to create a vernal god, and Marilynth succeeded...

An angelic choir filled the air as Marilynth was lifted up above the Pool of Stars until she was almost even with me. Golden light enveloped her, and caught in the amber glow, she began to spin slowly around. Her skin glowed so brightly that it melted from her body, replaced by a liquid effervescence. She opened her eyes and they shown with white light and she raised her arms and the entire chamber was filled with the beauty of her being. She was indeed a goddess now.

which proves the first statement wrong, unless Marilynth wasn't a vernal god...
like I said, I have no idea if this was the right place to put this or way to 'fix' it seeing as it is incorporated into the game (unless you decide to change history) or come up with an event with some weird scandal as to what really happened...

The Soulless were sometimes referred to as "Great Ones". (Do a search for "Great Ones" under the Vernal Wars history.)

I can't check the histories at the moment so I won't answer for fear of being silly, but I think I know the answer and it's just a misunderstanind or ambiguity that seems like an error.

EDIT: ninja.gif 'd by the Great One Herself. Not to imply She has no soul..well..yes I am implying that *runs away*.

Aye, "Great Ones" in the first sentence -has- to be talking about the soulless, so it stands to reason that it is talking about the soulless in the second sentence as well.

Makes sense how the Soulless cant react to the Basin unless a Seal becomes inactive (And if any of you pay attention, you notice whenever one of the Divine start playing with the Seals several mortals start freaking out and panicking tongue.gif Well, ever since Viravain broke the Seal of Nature..)
