Suddenly, Atticus exhaled slowly, his mind moving.
Ever since entering the First Crown and defeating the reverent, something had been bothering him about how power functioned within the Crown.
It was almost identical to the Span, with one slight difference.
The measure of will force remained the same. The more gods one absorbed, the stronger one's will became.
However, within the Crown, this seemed to affect the vastness and bountifulness of one's will far more than its actual strength.
During the battle against the reverents, he had witnessed just how heavily the Plane Will restricted those without True Wills.
Despite possessing as many worlds and as much force as the others, their powers had still fallen short.
With this, Atticus had determined something important.
What truly determined strength within the Crown… was the quality of will.
