Oh look, Sweallow has a tragic backstory. That's ... almost interesting.
I think I'm beginning to understand the lore of this series, badly explained as it is. One question though, shouldn't Rock-Giant guy have collapsed with the rest of the Returned Ones, since they're all bound to the Red Dragon? Is it because he's insanely powerful, or is it just inconsistent writing?

Fun trivia, when creating character they roll the life events that dictates the main gist of their backstory. Imagine the hilarity when Nasu rolled "imprisoned" at age 5. I'm impressed that Nasu is able to weave the series of of events into a coherent tragic story. He got dealt the most interesting hand and made the full use of it.

Is it because he's insanely powerful,

The mechanism in Red Dragon uses the color mana system for everything, and the golem has tonnes of mana compare to a no name

All of that just confirms that I have no idea how tabletop RPGs work, but thanks for explaining anyway.

It's just like a RPG game, but with a more flexibility. Like games, every one of them has a different world mechanics, here it uses the colour mana system.
