But that raised more questions. If the System was standard for Soul Wardens, why hadn't anyone mentioned it? Why did S and the other demons seem unaware of its existence? Why had Malakai kept it secret even from his most trusted guardian?
'Unless,' Jack thought, his mind following the logic deeper, 'the System is aware of who can know about it. Maybe it reveals itself differently to different people. Maybe what I see as "the System" is actually my personal interface with something larger, something that exists beneath the Soul Warden position itself.'
He remembered how the System had evolved as he'd grown stronger. New features unlocking. The Reputation Store. The skill customization. The class system that let him equip multiple paths simultaneously.
