Divinetouched

If a valturo drinks a small amount of ichor, they almost always become divinetouched. Their zealotry probably helps them achieve this state, and the fact that their bodies can’t tolerate alcohol. And the ichor is a special type of alcohol that is blessed by the Divine Scavenger.

Although sceptics don’t believe this condition exists, many valturo described the same sensation and feeling while they were divinetouched. In addition to this, ichor is mainly consumed by high-ranking priests, which gives a little more credence to this claim. The first effect of the divinetouched is that the valturo feel like they are flying. They are a flight-capable species, and this feeling doesn’t differ from taking drugs. However, almost every valturo also said that when they were in the divinetouched state, their bodies felt like they were growing, as if space just expanded around them, and they were floating high in the air, as if they were one with the Divine Scavenger. Felt like their consciousness and soul became one with the Divine Scavenger. Many of them also said they saw their beloved mountain home, the Cutter, below them, as if their senses were also connected to the Divine Scavenger.

Although many cases describe the same effects of the divinetouched, most scholars still don’t believe this condition exists. To them, it is similar to the effects of many drugs. Unfortunately, they can’t study any of the valturo, who is under the influence of the divinetouched. The ichor is mainly consumed during religious ceremonies, and the valturo church forbade the examination of any valturo and their condition. The other fact that hinders the scholars is that for non-valturos, any valturo made alcohol is just the same as any other alcohol. They won’t bring up any special conditions. It appears that the secret of the divinetouched will remain a secret for a while.
