Zodiark’s authority is fundamentally the inverse of Hydaelyn’s.
Where Hydaelyn embodies stasis, calm, and equilibrium, fixing existence in place to preserve the structure of the Source and its shards
Zodiark represents dynamism and restoration, the power to reshape and overwrite reality.
Because of this, maintaining the current structure of the Source and its reflections inherently requires Hydaelyn’s authority.
Without it, the system loses its stabilizing force, and the balance between worlds becomes unsustainable.
