In their act of confining me, the Imperium has threatened the very fabric of existence. The realm world has tentatively stabilized since my capture. To free me now, at this moment, could destabilize it once again and result in total destruction.
The Source Dragon of Energy to Lloyd and Zane
The glass core[1] was a unique prison designed specifically to capture Source Dragons and harness their dragon power. However, the action caused the realms to become destabilized, until Lloyd used the Dragon Cores to liberate the Source Dragon of Energy, effectively neutralizing the consequences of his release.

Trivia
- When questioned about whether the Source Dragon of Energy being trapped in the glass core led to the Merge, as the Source Dragon of Energy had stated that the realms became unstable due to this, Chris "Doc" Wyatt acknowledged that it was a valid inquiry, but he expressed his inability to provide an answer to it.[2]
