Dimensional Descent

Leonel knew that this was his one chance, but he was also limited in what he could take. The rules were overly complex for seemingly no reason, but it seemed to be that this was how Dream Force users liked to operate.

He was beginning to understand that certain groups of people had certain personalities not decided by their race, but rather what Forces they chose to use. In an irony of ironies, it could be said that his thoughts about how Light Force and Dark Force weren't necessarily good or evil were somewhat incorrect, though not entirely so.

Clearly, by the personal choice he had made with his Dream Force, it was possible to deviate that path somewhat using Sovereignty. But, just as obviously, not everyone could grasp Sovereignty.

This was all to say that the rules of the Dream Pavilions were overly verbose and filled with caveats and sub-sections for sub-sections. The rules themselves would take a lifetime for a mortal to read, and they might not even make it part of the way through.

Even for the current Leonel, it was impossible for him to grasp them all. Much like a lawyer, he could only focus on certain sub-sections of the rules at a time. But also much like a lawyer, he wasn't very worried about this.

Let alone Leonel, most members of the Dream Pavilion were just as obtuse about the scale and scope of the rules; they could only pick and choose their spots as well. That meant that it would be harder to take advantage of Leonel, especially since he had a database of the rules in his mind right this moment, something the others couldn't boast.

If the time came where he had to defend himself based on some arbitrary rule, he was sure he could do it. Though it made him feel uncomfortable that he wouldn't likely be able to prepare for it ahead of time, at this point he didn't really have much of a choice.

The question was, with this one loophole he had left to take advantage of...
