What Elliot said resonated in their minds and it started to make sense.
"Come to think of it," Ed said. "The Earth Master also didn't have any darkness in him. Although he was terrifying since his damage output and his reach was great, he didn't have the darkness that we found in Angin or Sayu."
"Yeah," Connor agreed. "That would make much more sense. Licht couldn't have them in his grasp. He couldn't corrupt them."
"Exactly. That was why even when Licht himself was controlling his undead army, he couldn't get them past the border. The undead had a limit as to how long they can go," Elliot said. "When Licht was trying to corrupt the Masters, only Angin was affected."
"Why are all of you saying such nonsense?" Kusa growled. "You're the darkness in these lands. Foreign bastards teaming up with the filthy rebels. How dare you think that the royalty was the one in the wrong here?"
