Does Wise always had Pyrois inside of him?
I didn't quite grasp the whole story regarding Wise and the ocular implants.
Here’s what I understood: the ocular implants act as an intermediary between Wise and Helious (which, from what I’ve gathered, is the golden Ethereal form Wise transforms into). If the two work together, Pyrois is born, otherwise, Wise is consumed by that golden Ethereal form. They share Pyrois, and Pyrois only exists through their collaboration. The Etheric Other.
So, I have a few questions. I imagine some might not have been answered yet while others have, but I’d like to verify them with you all.
Why exactly did Wise, and a few others receive these ocular implants? Is there a direct link to Sunbringer’s Sunseeker project? If I recall correctly, everyone in ZZZ has Ether particles in their bodies, does that mean Pyrois was always present within Wise, and the implant somehow manifested that consciousness? Was Wise already special in some way with the implants amplifying that trait or did the implants give rise to the whole thing? Is the golden Ethereal form special in some specific way?
