SCP-XXXX: Your kind linked spelling with magic because spells were words manifested, a part of that idea is what keeps the stand from being more powerful than it is now. All I can disclose is that to speak of any but the most known of my kind can lead to what I will only refer to, in lingo, as a reunion. Which would be hazardous for both our parties. Others names are tied in power like this, some have chosen names your kind use so freely without thinking, because they know you wouldn’t even stand a chance when they came to your shores.
Dr. Victoriano: So then I take it your name is an exception to this rule?
SCP-5371-A:(SCP-5371-A looks confused for a second before letting out a guttural noise later identified as a chuckle) Forgive me for how my word's flowed through. I meant to refer to the Children. The creature that your warriors saw was but one a phantom of them. Their names are the ones you should be wary to try to never speak, let they themselves return to this land.
Dr. Victoriano: I'll highlight that in the report, then tell me about the origins of SCP-5371. You mentioned a burden earlier, had creating it earned you that moniker?
SCP-5371-A: I was but the one that allowed it to be born, but what made it the monster it was, wasn’t by my tendrils. I had arrived on your world long ago, sometime after your siblings the [REDACTED] but where my journey with the Stand began happened much later down the line. It's conception, began in 19██, I repeat the steps I took towards that mistake in my head whenever I can. I had spent some time in Italy to bring some enjoyment to the locals, deciding to take in the sight of the shoreline, when a young boy had walked up to me. Something in him allowed him to perceive me as I was beneath my disguise, I truly pity he could not grow to do more with it. His father had thought poorly of him, thinking he would do nothing as a musician, and he was fueled by gloom and spite. I took pity on him and wanted to fuel that passion into love, so I offered to help him.
Dr. Victoriano: And he was used to create SCP-XXXX?
SCP-5371-A: Ah~, you jump to conclusions Doctor, to think my kind would do such barbaric things to an innocent youth. Our cousins more local to your world, certainly, but none from my hive. He persuaded me to help him build a stand, meant to attract and inspire others to partake at the sight of it, have a taste of what they could do in the art. So I decided to put a bit into my own touch to ensure it could bring that beauty. I had acquired the metal for it from a rather flaky merchant in London I had later refined to a usable material with help in Paris… but the boy had done something to it when I did not look. He managed to bring forth and bind the facets of the Dragon’s Children to the stand. I had not known the terrible evil he had made until it was too late, as the Evil of Storms unleashed death not only on everything around us but had sent winds that created chaos overseas, far beyond its range, while the Dragon’s Favorite made the Earth shudder with her brief steps. Even my kind across spaces could feel the violation of the art my creation had made, but not before the array of chaos it made ravaged the town by the time I acted to fix my mistake. Their brief presence had weakened my hold over it, but with what strength over it was left, I slew them and punished what remained. Killing all seven of their forms alone was tasking, but not impossible, however to destroy the essence they could simply return them was. All I could do was make it a prisoner of the device, and force those it harbored to simply relive their golden days. While the pain they would bring in the wars your kind was gearing towards was preventable, I deeply wish I could have done the same for those people. I came to inspire your kind to take up the melodies, but I instead cut down a community of possibilities. I had caused much suffering in creating that stand, the travel was is my penance.
Dr. Victoriano: How was the boy able to call upon these… Facets?
SCP-5371-A: I must confess, my kind is his blood. The blood of the Dragon the Children serve. By that right we are his as well, but we do not follow his will. From a piece that child took, he preyed for vengeance on those that mocked him, and with that incentive, the Children came and decided to wait until the worst possible moment to spring forth.
Dr. Victoriano: How many more of these children are there?
SCP-5371-A: There are 7 Dark Spawn of the Creator’s Brother; the anthesis of Imagination and Order, a ruler of Fear, and Chaos. His children embody each a portion of his power and mind, while they are only parts, that still gives them great power over your laws. Facets themselves are a… complex topic, as they allow the Children to exist in multiple planes of reality, but also act as their anchors to these worlds, all they see and learn that is maintained between. The Facets bound to the stand remember things the true Evils do out in the stars now while they remained trapped in their prison. To speak their true names so close would give it back some of power they had before their prison, and I'm uncertain if it's still those 7 that are within the stand anymore. Now is there anything else you wish of me?
Dr. Victoriano pauses for a moment.
Dr. Victoriano: I would like to request if you would assist in testing we want to run with it. If it’s as dangerous as you say it is.
SCP-3751-A: Typical primate, see something strange and you wish to poke it with a stick. Between you and the vast array of those that have actively sought out the stand following that day, I still find myself befuddled at that human curiosity, but I welcome it nonetheless, it's an air of freshness from the lost that consistently chased it. I will assist once you have understood what it is, for it is a truth you must uncover on your own. I can't help but still recall the last words I heard from that boy.
Dr. Victoriano: Could you please repeat it?
SCP-3751-A; It wasn’t even related to me. A crowd had gathered, he had turned to his father and asked him one thing. “Sono già diventato magnifico?”
