It's Because who I am

"It's hard to accept but you should know that you are not a living being now. 

You are a 'spirit', you are now nothing more than the soul of the artifact you are attached to. There is no way you could sacrifice yourself for your owner."

The six-armed old man was desperately trying to teach important lessons to this silly tuphor spirit but despite its best intentions, the tree spirit was still resisting internally to pass its own life force to the Zeph.

The tree shook its leaves portraying its disagreement with the old man. He was not discouraged at all, he knew how to correct its attitude, all it needs was little time to process what he was saying and patience. His other hands were resting on his lap, but one left hand was still holding the small trunk blocking out its efforts to send its precious life force to Zeph.
