The Epiphanies of Guidance

The Epiphanies of Guidance are an entity from the Star Ocean that manifest themselves to the Cardianon. It is a floating object that is diamond shaped. It makes whoever uses it feel like a God. The Cardianon did not know it but they were being controlled by them and became hostile creatures. They were transformed by it and even the leader of the home planet of the Cardianon.
