Every Phantom had an Operator. Every Phantom and anyone associated with the Dead Lands knew this, whether they were a scientist, a military officer, a department employee, or a government agent.
However, this was true only in the Upper Ring. At the Lower Ring, events unfolded along the same path, but a little later, starting at the K2 Level.
It was at this level that an Operator ceased to be merely a Phantom's eyes and ears for gathering information and became something greater, something unique.
Silvana went through this as well.
When Adam's Evolution Tree became strong enough and offered Silvana its energy, everything changed.
The moment an Operator received its energy marked a turning point. It was no longer a human, but something greater, a being bound to a Phantom and possessing its own energy.
After that, with every new stage for a Phantom, with every subsequent level, an Operator grew stronger, gained more control over the energy, and also gained access to abilities.
