Chapter 640 The Doll Wants to Replace Her
Wynter scrutinized Dalton’s elegant and handsome face. “Tell us about it.”
“Back then, our country’s puppet culture spread to Foplya.” Dalton’s voice was melodious as he effortlessly recounted the stories.
“During a certain period, dolls held a special status among Foplya’s warrior families and aristocrats. They believed that dolls had Souls, capable of not only warding off misfortune but also boosting morale,” he explained casually.
Wynter detected the crux of the issue. “How did they suddenly come to believe that dolls had souls?”
“It’s hard to verify the specifics, but there’s a story. It’s said that a brother who was about to leave home brought back a wooden doll for his lonely sister.
“The sister adored the doll, slept with it, and set a place for it at meals. She even gave it a name. But not long after, she fell seriously ill. Despite efforts to save her, she passed away.
“In order to keep the doll with her, her family sent it to a chapel to be worshipped by priests. Strangely, the
doll’s hair grew over time, and its face began to resemble the girl more and more.”
“Thus, the legend of the doll’s manifestation began. Some even worshipped it as a god, considering its
tone remained nonchalant.
origin from an ancient chapel.” Dalton
Tobias‘ brain felt muddled upon hearing this. “So, does that mean the doll gained enlightenment from the
priests‘ prayers?”
“No.” Wynter, ever astute, pointed out the flaw in the story. “If the doll could truly ward off misfortune, the girl wouldn’t have fallen gravely ill and died after coming into contact with it.
At this point, Wynter paused. “Was this girl’s identity special?”
He chuckled softly. “Yes, her family was reluctant to part with her, and some old followers insisted that the doll was the continuation of the girl’s life.
“Since then, it has been treated like a person and worshipped fervently. They firmly believe that only by worshipping it can they attain endless fortune and life.” Dalton brushed off nonexistent ashes from his
suit
Tobias was puzzled. “This sounds absurd.”
“It’s just an evil spirit aspiring to be a god.” Wynter fiddled with her purple sugilite pendant. It was a gesture she often made when pondering. “It’s a bit troublesome.”
She explained further, “Ordinary evil spirits are easy to deal with, but this wooden doll; having been worshipped and imbued with belief, is a bit more difficult to handle.”
No wonder destroying it wasn’t the end.
Upon hearing that, Fabiah immediately looked at Wynter.
