I know. And the particularly insidious part of it is that I can no longer claim victory in this game, as I am no longer a piece.
Only a living piece can challenge the Witch of Misfortune to reveal the truth. Each death is necessary for the game to continue, and yet each death removes a challenger from the game.
If no challengers remain, she wins. If the final challenge is never made, she wins. If I die- as in, die as a Witch, not just as I had in this game- she wins.
And if she wins, she gets the power of Dimensions. I will also be erased from existence, but that pales in comparison to the disaster of her having control over the Sea of Fragments.
Of course, the game is weighted in her favor. We have to scramble, and dig up the fragments of the truth, and it will be difficult, but we have to prove our intentions, and regain their trust.
[His expression changes]
I cannot believe that losing it would affect me so much.
It would affect everyone. She is malicious, she won't let any of you go so easily. What she has in mind for all of you...you will wish you hadn't been born.
I suspected as such, given I was still asleep. Long as there's one seal left, I can still function. Don't be afraid to use one if it the situation arises.
But... [He smiles a little at that] let's avoid a situation where the need would arise.

It's also why I didn't use your command seals. I need you here, Ruler. I didn't even mean to use the one I did.
