As always, these discussions went over my head. For all the words Phillip said, I understood only a few things.
First of all, David knew in advance that I had the potential to farm benevols.
Second, the other continents seemed to know as well.
Third, they were coming to enslave me or drag me away by force.
And it all stemmed from the fact that the Revenants were at an impasse. Even though they all wanted to expand their domains, they could not do so. All because they were at the limit of the malice they could endure.
If they wanted to conquer more ground or go deeper into Hellsgate, they needed help. The Revenants needed to expand their abilities or increase the number of powerful Reapers at their disposal.
This was all that would increase the number of souls their battlefront could hold.
'What a bad joke. It is as if malice is a virus and the World Tree is using us as antibodies.'
