So... Conflict, or Destiny? Conflict is possible, given he knows about Daniel and he recently became aware of the Fate Champions' conflict with Daniel. He also seems o apprieciate or at least be very interesed in the unusual level and type of conflic Daniel causes the multiverse. Otherwise he wouldn't have been as protective in the past. That said, the reason why he stopped Horror before is that Daniel was still on the mortal side. Implicitly, that reason would no longer be the case. Also, it is unlikely that Conflict, even if he is higher ranked than Equilibrium, to be able to so effortlessly go through a focused Equilibrium's power like that given that Equilibrium and Conflict are concepts which would have... well... conflicts lol. 90-95% sure it's Destiny. The rule of the game with fate is probably no helping his Champions before that specific Champion "won" their bet. Which would be the point where he ascended into Karma and lost Destiny's self-help system/blessing. But being Destiny he's only going to give Daniel (and any other) a chance, since that's what he's about. That's pretty fair, considering a newly ascended Aspect will be very weak compared to other aspects, and they just lost the System which was suposed to help them survive the mortal multiverse. If anything, avoiding the other hostile aspects means he is in even more dire need for the System's functions lol.
Thanks for the chapter! An interesting event has occurred! I cannot help but wonder if Daniel's status as a champion of life will influence anything here, or if it will not matter since his status as a champion of life is based on that he is immortal, on the condition that one of his mind, body, or spirit still survives. hmmm
