Lately, some have argued that technological development is overly reliant on Legacies.
This is a narrow-minded view.
Artisans shouldn't only focus on the technology in their hands. They need to understand the real value of Legacy research.
...
The Creed restricts access to high-risk Legacies.
But it does not hinder the Legacy research.
On the contrary, there has been an undeniable surge in innovations emerging from Legacy studies.

Some might say that the artisans' brilliant achievements are just a byproduct of adventurers discovering Legacies.
But I believe the value of Legacy research isn't limited to the act of study itself.

As the saying goes, "A rising tide lifts all boats." The immense power of Legacies does not merely pull artisans along.
It drives us forward.

If those people set aside their bias and look at the Artisan Guild as a whole, they would see:
Thanks to the impressive progress in Legacy modifications,
innovations have emerged across other fields as well, and the research within the Guild has been elevated overall.
...

With the continued efforts of adventurers, perhaps more Legacies will be discovered, or perhaps not.
Either way, Legacy research has opened a small window,
through which we can see a future filled with infinite possibilities.

A future that belongs to us, to humanity itself.
And that future is being forged by the hands of artisans.
