So let me get this straight -- whoever wields the Bow of Orion can use it to vanquish darkness. Is that what you're saying?

You never told me why you were seeking it.
Well, promise you won't tell anyone, but I'm trying to change my fate. The Bow of Orion is the key. It worked for him, right?

Orion is Darkseid's son.
Yes. He was raised by someone who believes in spreading the light instead of the darkness his birthfather created. And eventually he swore to serve that light instead.
