The gods subtly "educate" a group of people who align with the Source River philosophy through the career system, guiding their development in a direction closer to their own. In most cases, this is achievable—postnatal education and guidance can indeed determine most of a person's character.
Just like... although all are on the path of transcendence, the Serpent Father, the Serpent Celestial Marshal, and the Fallen Celestial Marshal clearly represent three completely different directions.
The most widespread career is the Fallen Celestial Marshal, which equates to "educating" all the Transcendents inclined towards the path of transcendence into a fallen state. Therefore, the more emphasis placed on education often grants more strength to the career... thus competing for "students" with other Celestial Marshals on the same path, gradually increasing their number of Angel Envoys and preventing competitors from growing stronger.
