Enjoy turtles 
But they don't want Edumon?So... are the shining ones like Team Rocket now?

They won't die as long as their gems are not destroyedgenuinely ridiculous the shinies aren’t getting nervous seeing Urek, their natural predator.
Probably extends beyond that.Bit of a random detail... We have seen that shining ones have some capability to grant wishes for people. And apparently out of sheer dickery they twist and derail said wishes. Mago and Aubrion granting wishes was a big plot point since mago's introduction. They also have their reversals which can be used for them to feed of others in various ways. Now, during the floor of death we learned a bit about Garam's and Urek's past and we know urek refused to grant Garam's wish of killing zahard. IIRC because he didn't feel he had a stake in that. Or maybe he just doesn't like doing what others ask. Anyways, seeing how shining ones can grant arbitrary wishes I wonder if the situation here is not that garam asked urek to go and viciously beat zahard until he was dead but rather she was wishing for him to just die. I suppose there's a chance that Garam didn't care which.
Based on the way Urek acts, it seems he's well aware that almost any major involvement he has can change history for the planet/system/tower (in this case), & his "role" is more of (and I know this will sound bad) "real" archangel in that his goal is inherently 4th dimensional to tower residents (they don't know of the outside world & even outside, Urek sits at the top table) & he's merely there to support the being this tower was created for.Probably extends beyond that.
Season 1 Urek based on the way he spoke seems like there would be a massive power vacuum to fill if Zahard were to suddenly die and he'd be looked at as the one to fill it.
But that's just one thing, I think his decision will come down to whatever he learns deeper on into his climb that will make him change his mind.
But Season 3 Urek also spoke like he has a set time period or event where he would be allowing Family Heads to die and felt like it was too early for it to happen just yet.
There's quite a lot of stuff that can be explored as part of why Urek remained so passive beyond just not caring about Zahard anymore nor is he willing to become King.
It's strange, he entered the Tower knowing nothing and acts like he won't be involved...he's merely there to support the being this tower was created for.
Yeah true on that one, if there's anyone who understands roles and places in the Universe and then free will plus Fate it would definitely be Urek more than anyone.Based on the way Urek acts, it seems he's well aware that almost any major involvement he has can change history for the planet/system/tower (in this case), & his "role" is more of (and I know this will sound bad) "real" archangel in that his goal is inherently 4th dimensional to tower residents (they don't know of the outside world & even outside, Urek sits at the top table) & he's merely there to support the being this tower was created for.
In the same as how he & the shinies have talked about the residents of this tower (Jahad & GW included at the same level as the residents), they were having a conversation akin to what I imagine angels and demons would have. If you look at them from this standpoint, they are no longer characters like everyone else in the story, side, FH, or even (current) Baam: their actions should be considered interference, where if they do something beyond a small scope, they are wrecking the environment, people, & history, with no REAL benefit for themselves. There's emphasis on that last part.
Urek isn't doing anything more than he's already doing because, as angels (theoretically) do, they let people make their own decisions, and like Mago (demonic), they possess people lol
He was initially chasing Phantaminum, but Phantaminum entered the tower with the purpose of:It's strange, he entered the Tower knowing nothing and acts like he won't be involved...
Maybe he just waiting the right moment, why didn't he leave the Tower long ago?
What Phantaminum expects when he took Urek in this Tower? The wave of Baek? Somethig bigger I suppose.
Perhaps in the initial conflict, Phanta was weakened as well? If Urek had come to be after the shining ones were already "jaded" be would've had to have been made to be far more powerful, & who's to say the shining ones aren't under Phantaminum against their will?The thing I don't get it is why didn't phanta took care of urek first? Why focus on emergence of second axis when another much more direct rival axis in urek exist? Shouldn't phanta with shining ones deal with urek first? Seems strange.
I am pretty sure that Phanta has plans for Urek and it's possible that he lured him in the Tower. Urek also already exists. He is the last, brightest Shiny.The thing I don't get it is why didn't phanta took care of urek first? Why focus on emergence of second axis when another much more direct rival axis in urek exist? Shouldn't phanta with shining ones deal with urek first? Seems strange.
I think Pillars are immortal. That's why he never took care of UM. So he sealed him inside the tower for eternity???The thing I don't get it is why didn't phanta took care of urek first? Why focus on emergence of second axis when another much more direct rival axis in urek exist? Shouldn't phanta with shining ones deal with urek first? Seems strange.

Hmmm, so what happened to urek's test now? If delamod died like that did they all pass or does it count as a fail since someone else did it? I suppose an outcome like this was obvious as killing a ranker in a test, which means this is pretty damn official, would be problematic lore wise as urek is not officially recorded ever killing rankers in the main story during his climb.
