Besides power, besides the Stigma, besides the soul.
There indeed exists a certain difference between Sublimators and ordinary people.
Perhaps even before they embraced the miracles from Hell, were entrusted with heavy responsibilities, or simply acted on a whim, they were already different from ordinary people.
According to the statistics and analysis of the Astronomical Society, those with firm beliefs, goals, and persistence in their hearts are relatively more likely to succeed through the crises and trials brought by sublimation.
There is, in fact, a survivorship bias at play here, as a strong will often allows one to persevere a bit longer when facing the agonizing climb out of the Sea of Silver.
And, without a doubt—sublimation changes a person.
After personally experiencing that unrestricted rebirth close to death, Sublimators will, more or less, have some epiphanies.
