It's especially erogenous because her reason for bidding on them is never revealed, for all he knows she wanted to free them, and anyone with any knowledge about Korugar knows better than to trust Sinestro to keep his word.

->''The tide of universal nothingness is rising. An emptiness spreading like a disease, consuming everything it touches. A religion of anti-emotion grows, tended by shepherds who bolster the flock by force if necessary. The Paling eats away at the very foundation of the universe. But fear is the counter-engine that can turn back the flood.''

* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: It's always unclear just how many of those who act like they approve of Sinestro are telling the truth, but most people in ''the universe'' know better than to trust him including most of his own Corps and he makes it clear that he doesn't trust any of them either. He does start regaining the loyalty of parts of the corps as the title progresses, but they have very different priorities than most people.
