I wonder why there are no records of the gods existing then, especially if the first Renans knew who and what you were.

[as for the Master Cores, Dohalim had always wondered what the accumulation of astral energy was for. there had to be another reason other than a show of a Renan lord's power over the Dahnans. just what happens to the energy after? he doubts it goes back to the planet or its people, only to be siphoned again, especially with those whose energy have been depleted completely. it's a mystery that no one's ever questioned, not even himself until this moment. every ceremony he's witnessed with the lords presenting the gathered astral energy, he's never seen it be stored anywhere or taken anywhere. so then... if it's all stored in the Master Core itself, then it's hundreds of years of torment, and thousands of lives...

with his other hand, he summons the orb out, holding it out to look at it forlornly. if he were to destroy it, would it release all of the astral energy back into the world? but... it's a tie to himself and Zhongli, so he can't...]

Have any of the lords tapped into it's true power completely?
