The Champion Tree didn't provide me with an answer. All it knew was repeating the same thoughts I already heard and making this false note that somehow sounded worse and worse each time I felt it in my head.
The last thing of importance I heard from it was:
'You will study the sound, and when you see all the gods, you will speak it. Then we all will live and spread offspring.'
This made me understand one thing—for Usnea's plan (assuming they weren't lying about it all, possibly even playing a shitty joke at my expense with this "magical sound" thing), I didn't HAVE to conquer the world.
I just had to stand at the divine court, which could happen if I were a witness to some rule-breaking, just as it happened earlier.
I was sure this could be arranged much more easily than world-conquering. But first, I had to deal with the sound, and since the Champion Tree wasn't very helpful, I had to take things into my own hands.
