Krune noticed that he felt stronger than usual. The intention of Little Cally was to trap him in the stone pillar and siphon his powers into the indigenous people that prayed to it.
It was a sound plan, one that would have worked on him like usual. That is...unless he hadn't experienced something like that before.
After all, once he crossed the Zamuria Continent, Krune came across the shadowy abyss where some mysterious power of prayers seemed to be in effect. One of his clones had been converted into a wish-granting tool just because a group of indigenous people there started to worship it.
The clone had been permanently morphed, losing everything it had of him in the process. It was a frightening experience.
And now that they had established the Mountain Sect while relying on this terrain to act as the walls protecting it, Krune wished to understand them better.
With that, he had sacrificed a lot of clones in the process.
