"What do you want with a seed from the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms?" Anthony asked, puzzled.
"To plant it, of course. I haven't had a Tree of Ten Thousand Realms for a long time. I need one to restore life's balance," the Star Mover said.
"Is it necessary? You've gone so long without one; what's the point in planting it now? What would happen without the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms?" Anthony inquired.
The Star Mover replied, "Without the tree to regulate life's balance, the increment loss would be really fast. When I was dormant, it didn't matter if I stayed still, but now that I'm active, not having the tree is wasteful."
Anthony scrutinized the Star Mover suspiciously and said, "You're not planning on letting the Ancient Man-Snake parasitize it, are you?"
"I don't care about that. What I need is to reduce the increment loss, not to have a robust Tree of Ten Thousand Realms. Whether it gets parasitized or not makes no difference," the Star Mover responded.
