Manipulating the Souls
The River Whale didn't even notice the hell it was subjected to, unable to appreciate the final moments of its individuality. It lay on the ground; the shallow water barely reached a tenth of its height.
The water level became deeper further deeper into the layer, but at the entrance, it wasn't much to comment about. Even a five-year-old child could move through it without any danger to his life. Using the hallucination, Jyorta controlled the River Whale to gently manipulate the water around it, carrying the Shoe Fishes to make a layer around it.
This allowed the Shoe Fishes to reach all corners of its body. Through the soul domain, Jyorta gazed at the Shoe Fishes, trying to attach them all to the River Whale. It was a simple plan he had devised; it was to raise the defence of the River Whale to the maximum and use it as his steed.
