I could swear that the Covers agents are basically the D-Reaper entities but in nice suits. They even have the cord that connects them to the main source. So like the D-Reaper, I’m theorizing that the Life Fibers are like an Old One, in that its terms and morals cannot be comprehended by normal man.
