Was faith the only solution to this problem?
The Larkinson Network was vulnerable. Ves readily believed this to be the case.
Even if he left out the insane capabilities of the Web Mistress herself, there should be plenty of other True God-level adversaries that might be able to find a way to sabotage or outright disable the Larkinson Network.
The solutions offered by the Web Mistress sounded rather general and obvious, but Ves genuinely did not consider them in the past. This meeting had already been worth it for this information alone.
Yet that did not necessarily mean that he liked her proposed solution to his problem.
"Faith, huh?" Ves frowned as he tried to contemplate this unpalatable solution.
Why faith?
Why must the Larkinsons resort to make-belief and superstition to protect their kinship network against external attacks?
