"I originally intended to wait until you advanced to Legendary before telling you." The Eye of the Firmament considered briefly before continuing, "But under the circumstances, I doubt you could rest easy if I kept it from you."
No, we probably won't be able to rest easy after you tell us, either, Dunn silently quipped.
"My current biological level is 39, and I have been stuck at this level for several thousand years."
Several thousand years was no short time even for a High Legendary. Normally, ordinary Legendaries lived anywhere from several hundred to over a thousand years, while even High Legendaries had a maximum lifespan of no more than ten thousand years.
And as everyone knew, Wizards were the longest-lived profession.
Thus, the average lifespans of other professions were even shorter.
"Over these several thousand years, I have searched every possible avenue for a way to cross the threshold into Heaven's Mandate."
"In the end, I discovered something."
"Every Legendary who has entered Destiny belonged to a traditional profession. Not a single card class has entered their ranks."
"Does this mean that the limit for Card Classes is level 39, and that they cannot reach Heaven's Mandate?"
"You must understand, career cards have existed for tens of thousands of years. If Card Classes could reach Heaven's Mandate, surely at least one would have appeared over all that time."
"But I scoured history and found not a single Destiny Legendary with a card class. Classholders with card classes have only ever reached level 39."
"This all but confirms that card classes possess some kind of flaw that makes advancing to Destiny Legendary impossible."
At these words, even Dunn could not help feeling shaken. His class was a card class, too. If what the Eye of the Firmament said was true...
