For a few seconds, Daneel just stood there, unable to believe what he had just heard.
First of all, he had gotten this slight suspicion after reflecting on the fact that the name of the Queen didn't change no matter how many times the actual Queen changed.
From this, one could understand that it meant that although the body might change, the Queen remained the same.
Yet, from everything he knew about Empire Spirits so far, Daneel had concluded that this must be impossible, as it wouldn't make sense for a spirit which was capable of this to just sit quietly in its Kingdom and not try to rule the continent.
After all, it was an established fact that each Empire Spirit had enough ability to stomp over the Big 4 and become the Supreme Ruler. The Black Raven Empire Spirit and Dinora would both have accomplished this easily if they had been given a chance to fully possess someone.
Yet, he was supposed to believe that this spirit only had good intentions?
Fat chance.
