Other factors, such as lack of strength, absence of the Gold Light or components of the Golden Law, or not having enough qualified allies, are not the core issues. The true obstacle that must be overcome to progress from the Silver Species to the Golden Races is just one... the Sterilization Curse!
And the World Tree, the Civilization World Tree, is the only universally recognized and side effect-free method of avoiding the Sterilization Curse!
Depending on the depth of civilization, it can produce approximately thirty to fifty thousand newborns each cycle (a human year)!!
Moreover, these newborns are not born through the slaughter of the Golden Construct Race; they are born without original sin.
