What Ves attempted to do next was the final and arguably the most crucial part of the puzzle.
Success could make a huge difference in this wave and the subsequent ones.
Failure would force the Dominion of Man to violate the unwritten rules of the ritualistic combat setting that had formed between the two sides.
Borrowing the power of spirits was a time-tested technique to Ves. He had done it plenty of times in the past, but he had never done so during a lightning tribulation!
The storm clouds raging from above produced a lot of interference that vastly reduced his connection to other spiritual entities.
Ves was pretty sure that he wouldn't be able to borrow the power of the Superior Mother or Gaia because he had a strong feeling that the tribulation storm would smite him for the act of borrowing power from an external source!
