He thought that small worlds were only useful to divine beings as a source of life span, but after seeing how the Thorn House of Commerce had vacated the creatures on the small world, he remembered that divine beings use living beings to grow and multiply their spirit creatures. This taught him a lesson not to underestimate the Thorn House of Commerce.
After assimilating the two small worlds, he went on towards the location of the closest one. On his way there, he thought about how the entire small world was barren of living things, including trees.
