Mirtis - Finds out why Endbringers attack + Shards

“What do Endbringers want? Death and destruction,” he said. He paused. “Well, the Endbringers actually want people to trigger.”

“What?” I asked.

“They could kill people from out of range easily enough,” he said. “If you’ve seen the maximum range that Leviathan ever used his powers, you’d know that he could just sit at the bottom of the ocean and wipe entire cities off the map. Why doesn’t he? It’s possible that he just enjoys killing people, but look at the statistics for the numbers of capes in cities that have been attacked by Endbringers. The numbers just skyrocket.”

“Why would they want to create more parahumans?”

“I assume that they are either working with or were created by the creatures that keep tendrils in people’s brains.”

“Powers?” I frowned. “If you’ve seen them, have you figured out whether they are sentient?”

“I’m not sure,” he said. “Intelligent, yes, but sentient? It’s possible that they’re like ants, with most of them being drones following some kind of queen. They seem to all be of the same species, at least.”
