White and blue devour just seem so odd to me. It really makes sense in the other colors... I mean, you've done a good job finding a mechanic on Ancestor of Knowledge that makes a lot of sense, and this is certainly a white mechanic, devour just doesn't sound right in White. The funny thing is that it would probably be okay if it had a different name.
What do you suggest? These were supposed to be ancestral spirits that you had to sacrifice to in order to gain their power.
Hm. That flavour is good. If there were room for flavour text, you could add some flavour text that the eyes of the dead are always eaten to gain their wisdom, or equivalent -- that's quite white (both in a community building and respecting enemies without showing them mercy ways :)).
