Imbued Alarms begin as simple, Will-powered tripwires guarding hidden doorways in The Will of the Many, but their presence signals the Hierarchy’s broader obsession with control and surveillance. Across the series, these alarms evolve from passive detectors into active instruments of political intrigue, used not only to catch intruders but to manipulate loyalties and stage betrayals. Their growing sophistication mirrors the protagonists’ own expanding mastery of Will, turning what was once an obstacle into a tool for rebellion.
