Quinn & Lia Ainsworth

Silver rose to his feet, walking over to the glass wall behind him.

Under his leadership, the White House had undergone immense renovations. Currently, the only word that could describe it was "a fortress"

"KI, Do you believe the side effects of using this ability would work on Lucius if he just devoured the heart of El-Marsam?" Silver asked.

[Yes. Devour consumes all the properties of whatever is caught within its grasp, both the positive and the backlashes. However, side effects like vengeful spirits are ineffective since they can also be consumed.] Ki responded, causing Silver's eyebrows to squint.

This meant even with the heart devoured, Lucius would have been able to deal with the soul fragmentation and temporal disruption backlashes of the artifact.
