"The Proelium Tower also carries a ranking system, and those who ascend it gain recognition as their names are spread not only throughout their own universe but across multiple universes.
Since each universe holds its own tower, all interconnected with the others, anyone who enters is offered both honour and power, as the names of the strongest beings within their respective universe are broadcast across the cluster.
But this, in turn, only increased the influence of Sonerth and Uetera, who had originally proposed the idea in the first place, something the five universes that voted against it had certainly foreseen."
Indeed, it was easy to imagine just how much more influence those two Masters could wield simply by saying, "We're the ones who helped your universes recover their lost power after the last invasion. You owe us. Even now, our actions continue to make your universe stronger."
