It's a way to sorta... cut out the Sburb disks from the Ascendere backstory.

Essentially, Marie or whatever her name was, found or somehow created a set of 12 artifacts that she sent out across the world to Aden, Juan, Mary and the others, with a 13th she sent out that functions like the Jack's Regisword, negating the others.

The Ascendere form a sort of... bond with the artifacts, giving a sort of longevity, I guess. The artifacts are, of course, collected and generally remain in the Warehouse for Aden, Juan, and Mary and the negator artifact, or in the GT mansion (for the others).

I know you'll think this idea is probably WORSE than the disks if possible, but Garr wanted me to run it by you.
