Good point, but I think he was saying that to goad Nouda.

It didn't work.

Ramthura was stronger than NOuda. Ramthury disrupted the elements, the careful order magic depends on, Ramthura could've gulped up Nouda if he was there.

Yes, probably just as easy, as the PM's Afrit.

So, I guess we all pretty much agree Nouda is pulp when Ramuthra is around?

Remember we never actually saw Nouda at his finest. It took Faquarl weeks to
gain full control over the new body. Nouda had less than a day.

Yes, but Nouda wasn't trying to behave exactly like a real human like Faquarl was. Nouda only needed to point an arm in vaguely the right direction and throw detonations.

Techincally, we never saw Ramuthra at his finest either.

But Ramuthra was on full-on spirit form. Nouda still didn't have full control. He didn't alter the planes to the extent Ramuthra did, but that was because he was inside a human body.

Why would a mere human body stop the reality warping effect?

Wasn't it the rift that was causing the warping?

Actually the host body was slowly being warped.

Because it compresses the entirety of the spirit into the body.

Because that's the point. Supernatural activities get trapped inside the body.
