Operator story: Civilight Eterna
| Operator | File | Story | Gallery | Trivia |
The "Civilight Eterna," alternatively known as the Black Crown due to its shape, is the nickname of DWDB-221E, an artifact/relic created by the "First Civilization" to record their history so that they will never make the same mistake in the future.[1] Although intentionally created that way, for Trevor Friston, the Civilight Eterna's appearance as a crown leaves a bad taste in him due to the implications it could represent the power of royalty, a symbol of a bygone feudal practice. He also would have preferred to use its power to create a collective consciousness that reshapes every lifeform.[2]
After the Civilization's downfall, the Civilight Eterna, for unknown reasons, ended up in the possession of the Teekaz races and became the symbol of the King of Sarkaz, or the Lords of Fiends, as called in Sarkaz eschatology. Rather than following a specific line of succession, the Civilight Eterna randomly chose Sarkaz individuals it deemed fit to wield it, who did not necessarily belong to a royal family, as can be seen in its previous wielder Theresa.[3]
Before her death at the hands of the Doctor during the climax of Theresis' siege of Babel, Theresa passed the Civilight Eterna to Amiya, making her the only King of Sarkaz/Lord of Fiend who is not actually a Sarkaz herself (being a Cautus/Chimera). Her position is not recognized, especially among the Revenants, who derisively call her an Outblood King and see Amiya as unworthy of its power.[4] Nevertheless, Amiya would make use of the Civilight Eterna's power at times to help her even up the odds, despite the ten rings she wears limited it.[5][6]
| The following pertains to a subject that is not yet released in the Global server of Arknights. |
The Civilight Eterna spends its appearances throughout Arknights' Main Theme as a background object associated with Amiya before creating a "clone" of Theresa from its recorded memories at the climax of Episode 14 acting as its Operator representation.
