"Trump cards? Hold on. They are based on Rayn?" Skullius fumbled over his theories. He thought he'd figured everything out, but apparently not.
"So that's what it is," said Skullius, looking relieved. "That's why Quintess resorted to creating humans, Sif and Giants born with stronger souls and not stronger bodies, right? That minimised the cost."
The Deitess gave Skullius a knowing look. The Hybrid Warmoth was surprised that she figured this out on her own. That detail about the Empyrean Bosom and the Warmoth's Treasury was known only to him and the Stark-Soul Order.
The Empyrean Bosom imbibed the properties of the world the user was on.
This was why Skullius and his subordinates were able to complete Tasks, Trials, and level up even while away from Aigas during the intensive training he sentenced them all to in the Timould Mirror Box.
Where Revia was concerned, when Red Rage had taken her to the Bosom, Quintess' automatic protection likely failed to recognise that she was being taken away from Aigas because of the superiority of the chanisms of the Bosom.
On top of that, Red Rage had used the ivory key to transport her (the most direct way of reaching the Bosom) rather than the ans Skullius was attempting on the other Wardens.
Of course, Skullius could simply use this more direct way to teleport the Wardens to safety, but…
"The Wardens can't beco vessels, right? So how exactly are they Quintess' trump cards?" he asked Suzate, frowning. "Don't tell they are… expenditure."
The Deitess gave him a look that gave a dreadful confirmation.
