[Waybound] The Solution to the problem (Spoiler from Preview Chapter 1)
SPOILER… GO AWAY IF YOU HAVE NOT READ OR LISTENED TO WAYBOUND’S CHAPTER ONE.
In that wonderful first chapter of Waybound a near future and difficult problem is presented to Lindon… Since his comrades are going to advance really fast… Their Souls are likely to sustain some damage. To fix those “Soul’s injuries” Lindon needs several different kind of authority. For healing Mercy he used the authority from several Monarchs through their artifacts. The problem arose when after healing Mercy some of those items were clearly strained or damaged. Until the point that Dross suspect that they could be used, in the same way, just one more time.
That is the issue… On the worst scene possible four more times Lindon will need a similar gathering of authority to fix the problems of his comrades’ souls after their advances. He has not Monarch beyond Emriss to help him neither has the time to get news Monarchs’ artifacts from which extract such authority.
So HERE is my theory about the way Lindon is going to solve such an issue. QUIT READING in case you don’t like theories.
DREADGOD.
[One of Northstrider’s facilities,] Dross reported. [Not his best one, obviously. Here’s where his team studies Remnants with unusual authority.]
An orange monkey took a bite of an apple, then restored it to pristine condition and bit it again. A squid-like slimy Remnant punched the inside of its tank, lighting up the glass; Lindon felt the punch containing a weight that twisted the world. A buzzing cloud of flies formed a vague outline of Yerin, mimicking her movements slightly before she did. She waved and began striking strange poses to see if she could force it to make a mistake as Lindon inspected the rest.
Lindon seized every Remnant in the room while Dross complained.
!Lindon is going to take the authority of those Remnants and use that for stabilizing his comrades’ souls when they need it after advacing.!<

My guess is that he'll meditate on the Suriel chamber long enough to get his own authority, or at least a better sense of Restoration.
