The Red Collective's legal interpretation of Ves' identity was incredibly significant.
It essentially codified red humanity's official stance towards the existence of multiple personalities in the same body.
No matter whether the other personality was a companion spirit or a ghost who invaded a cultivator's body, so long as they had become intrinsically inseparable from the soul or other personalities, they should be treated as a single legal identity.
This was not the right way to treat every case of multiple personalities. However, Ves had spent enough time on reviewing some of the bills that circulated through the Lower and Upper Council to know that the right solutions often had to make way for more expedient solutions.
Treating Ves, Blinky and the Dark Apostle as a single 'human individual' was easy to work with. Others did not have to keep careful track of which personality they addressed and wonder if a contract with one applied to the other two as well.
