Sin

Sin was a magical white ark device employed by the gods of the First Period. Originally used to traverse the infinite blackness to find potential, new worlds, the device was later used to seal eight of the gods in the Third Period and became a forbidden idol of worship in the Magic Kingdom Levianta.

History
Created some time during the First Period, the ark Sin was used for the gods to escape their destroyed paradise and travel the black sea beyond it. After arriving at a new place and creating the Second Period, some of the gods later fled from their paradise at its destruction, taking the ark across the black sea to another new place. Once the surviving 72 gods finished creating a third world, the sun god dropped the ark into the Third Period's northern Evillious region around BT 528.

He then sealed the rampaging Levia-Behemo and the six kin helping the twin gods in the ark. Left in the third world, many humans gathered around the ark in worship of it and soon formed the nation of Levianta. Becoming the great Magic Kingdom, the Leviantans built a temple around Sin and forbid the device from being used for resurrecting the dead. As the centuries passed, Sin aged and eventually became unusable for its forbidden purpose.

In EC 013, Kiril Clockworker cast the Clockwork Secret Art to reverse the time on Sin, rejuvenating it. Placing his dead beloved, Elluka Chirclatia, in the device, Kiril activated it before the magic technique faltered and Sin went out of control. The device then partially resurrected Levia-Behemo and revitalized Elluka as an immortal. Sin was soon after buried in the resulting destruction of Levianta caused by the incompletely reborn twin gods.

Mechanics
As a ship, Sin was capable of containing the entirety of the gods, allowing them all to sail within the vessel. The device was also extremely long-lasting, having maintained working condition for more than a thousand years before finally breaking down. The vessel was also suitable as a vessel for sealing entities, able to contain gods for centuries.

Sin was able to resurrect humans as well, reviving the dead placed within it when activated. Although eventually deteriorating over time, the device could be rejuvenated by the Clockwork Secret Art, though improperly casting the spell could result in freeing any entity sealed inside; the combination of magic could likewise cause the revived to end up immortal and knowledgable about using the swap technique.

Conceptualization and Origin

 * The term "sin" refers to an immoral act considered to be a transgression against divine law.
 * Its shape and original use is possibly a reference to the biblical Noah's Ark, used for a similar purpose of escaping the world's destruction.
