This | While having a minor role at first glance, it is revealed that the humans themselves are the very source of the Underworld's continuous supply of troops. This, as Hades puts it, is unraveled by Palutena, [[Dark Pit]] and Viridi in [[Chapter 22]]. With the increase of deaths, the souls lost are used by the god of the Underworld to create more infernal soldiers. The abundance of souls is so vast that Hades doesn't even use them all, sending the weak ones as lunch for the [[Soul-Eating Monster]], and only the strong ones are rewarded with peace after death. To increase the deaths, Hades purposely spread the myth of the [[Wish Seed]], knowing the humans would go to war for it. This act was only the beginning of the Underworld Army's over-populating numbers. | ||
