MASUDA: How is it you know this place so well?
HOWARD: A lifetime ago, I, too, sought the stones. I even held one in my hand, and tried to use it to create my magnum opus. But the community backlashed, and cast me out, banished me here. I guide others to a treasure I cannot possess, and hope they don’t make the same mistakes that I have. What you seek lies before you. As does what you fear.
MASUDA: What's this?
HOWARD: The price. Soul hold a special place among the Infinity Stones. You might say it has a certain wisdom.
MASUDA: Tell me what it needs.
HOWARD: To ensure that whoever possesses it... Understands its power... The stone demands a sacrifice.
MASUDA: Of what?
