One last thing before I shut my filthy whore mouth for accidently imposing my ideas on your canon. Mainly the secret agendas of the Glitch.

The Glitch intentionally gave Dewitt control over the alliance to ensure an inevitable betrayal. He even told a bullshit backstory that glorifies him and promised to make Dewitt the ruler of mankind simply to speed up the backstabbing. He's counting on the Tale Weaver planning to usurp complete control over the alliance because that would make him the perfect scapegoat. By spreading the rumor that Dewitt was the one who came up with the idea, the other Fears will think Glitchy is simply a washed up old fool who's trying to get something out of the arrangement. They don't exactly read blogs so none of them have any information that contradicts that. Well, aside from the word of servants and other humans, but they would probably just shrug it off since none of them respect the Glitch enough to think he can pull it off. Dewitt would basically become public enemy number one.

And if the alliance does win before that happens, then the Glitch can simply kill off Dewitt. He's still far more powerful than a Demi-God even in his weakened state after all.

It's basically a huge Xanatos Gambit.
