The act was never meant to kill even the smallest segment of the population. In fact, the only civillian casualties that occurred were caused by the raging conflicts around and not the destruction itself. The deaths of everyone else came after, on the evacuation ships. In short, Graveny used my plan to put such a large number of people in a position to die so that he could exponentially grow his own power.

You would think they would be insignificant compared to all the deaths that occur in Existence at any given moment.
