Ves felt that Casella's ambition had a lot of potential.
If she was able to extend her Command Field to other star systems by exploiting the advantages of deity cultivation in combination with her companion spirit, then she may be able to defend an entire zone by herself!

There was only one possible upgrade in particular that may be worth adding to the mech design.
