Linsley didn't mind his current responsibilities; in fact, he found satisfaction in the idea of eradicating the Outer Gods, whom he saw as nothing more than parasitic cancers plaguing existence. Their behavior and actions were so vile that eliminating them felt less like a duty and more like a personal vendetta.
He could understand why the Will of the Infinite Realities sought their extermination. The Outer Gods' provocations, though trivial in the context of infinite realities, were akin to small flames that, left unchecked, could ignite devastating infernos.
Losing one or two multiverses was insignificant on the cosmic scale, but the Outer Gods' actions were a direct affront to the natural order, a challenge that the Will could not afford to ignore. It made sense to Linsley—cut out the tumors before they metastasize.
