... I didn't think about that... They should, but I wonder if the Seeds I have would work too?

[mightymorphin]

Huh, what's that?

[nightwild]

[She pulls out from a pocket a... it looks like a slightly-too-large walnut, really.]

These things are the Goddess' power. You make a wish on them to get power.

[mightymorphin]

And it's safe to use that?

[That was the first thing that popped into their head. Maybe it was even safer with this much distance from her world, but you never knew.]

Guess you won't know until you try it out.

[nightwild]

Wh- Hell, no, it's not safe.

[She re-pockets it.]

... Well, I couldn't use it if I wanted to. But most people turn into monsters from them.

[mightymorphin]

Monsters?! But -

[If it weren't for the conversation that they had with Nura about what it means to be a 'monster', Morph would've kept going instead of biting their tongue. Instead, they say emphatically,]

Don't go around turning people into things without their permission, got it?

[nightwild]

-- I'm not! It doesn't- That's not how it works, anyway!

[She sounds... a little frustrated? But she manages to rein in her temper enough to calm down and explain.]

It just gives you power if you make a wish on it. But most people... You give them the power to grant their wish, and it consumes them. People lose themselves to the power.

If you can keep sight of yourself- If you don't let your heart get consumed by the power, then you can become like me, and control it. Otherwise... people just go crazy. Try to use their power however they please.

[Hey they don't know any better!!]

Oh, so it's a wish with strings attached?

Still sounds super dangerous. Having someone go nutso with power isn't any better.

[nightwild]

No strings if your heart's strong enough... but most people aren't.

You give the average guy power, and they're just going to do whatever they want and hurt everyone around them in the process.
