To think about it more, Isiah wasn't a hundred percent sure of what was going to happen after the ascendance of all the high ranked mages and the seventh king, he didn't know even if they were going to leave them like Adelita said, Lautner wasn't a reliable source for sure, and certainly all the events that happened later are not that clear.
Isiah wasn't sure about the reality itself here after what Ethyl said just a moment before she left.
He didn't care about the people around him, nor the Delwias Island region, he only cared about his existence and if he was going to live again, it better be a good comfortable life, the higher regions offer that but if they reject him that way he wouldn't stay still and watch himself be crushed again, not anymore ..
