Casella's reaction towards the First Chosen Envoy was less than pleasant to say the least.
The Chosen Courtyard nurtured Imon Ingvar's tattered remnant of a soul back to health. It actually went beyond that and continued to empower him until he was transforming into an entity that gained physical substance.
Yet this transformation also introduced undesirable changes to the formerly deceased expert pilot.
It was as if the Chosen Courtyard functioned as a factory that brutally salvaged Imon's soul, only to turn it into a macabre vessel for a powerful servant whose sole purpose was to obey the users of the Mech Designer System.
Was Imon still Imon?
Ves truly could not answer this question.
Casella could not come up with a solid answer either.
If there were still parts of Imon that were left intact but got buried under his new behavioral programming, then there may be a way to bring the old Imon back in a reasonable manner.
