When we were blinded by a person or an event, we would always unconsciously overlook the other dangers in our surroundings. Generally speaking, this feeling was called obsession, but frankly, obsession was not a good thing.

It made you overlook many things, and if what you believed in had been carefully arranged by people with ulterior motives, that obsession might ultimately destroy everything you stood for, everything you protected... That was Xe'ra's current situation. A "correct" prophecy had guided her forward for tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of years.

Dick knew that Xe'ra had not simply failed to consider the prophecy's accuracy. Any prophet knew that no prophecy could be one hundred percent accurate. Even someone like Velen, who stood at the pinnacle of prophecy, would always examine and compare more than ten different fragments of the future before confirming a prophecy, ultimately using his extraordinary wisdom to choose the one closest to the truth.

All prophets did this, and Xe'ra should have done the same. But she had not... Or rather, whenever she wanted to, a voice would silently tell her that this was correct, this was right, this was beyond doubt.

Moreover, in Dick's view, Xe'ra's prophecy was indeed correct. But it lacked a part. Some mysterious being had deliberately torn a part away!

The part concerning the Void.

This was truly deception of the highest order. There was not a single lie; you simply had not been told everything.

This was also why Dick had chosen to negotiate with Xe'ra in Ulduar's Celestial Planetarium rather than the Exodar or elsewhere. Only here could the power of order reach its limit, completely preventing the intrusion of any power that conflicted with it.

Yes... Xe'ra, the Mother of the Holy Light, had also been tainted by chaos.
