Though the Riot Mark III's mutations and resistance to physical modifications frustrated Gloriana, Ves did not entirely see this as a purely detrimental situation.
From the perspective of his design philosophy, the Riot Mark III had evolved. It had moved along an unknown track. Whether the ultimate destination was good or bad remained to be seen, but at least the living mech moved forward.
Ves interpreted that as progress.
Who was he to judge whether the Riot Mark III's autonomous evolution was beneficial or detrimental?
He did not blindly assume that the current changes were all bad. He personally believed that the physical changes reflected its spiritual evolution.
What truly mattered was the struggle for dominance between its two dominant controllers.
Saint Orfan endured a lot of mental pressure during the last battle. She partially lost control and gave in to the darkness of her own demon.
