The Primordial Record

As if held in the hands of a giant, Doom Star shook, as a massive cracking sound like a billion thunderstorms concentrated in a tiny room exploded throughout the realm.

Rowan’s dimensional flesh that had spread throughout the realm suddenly contracted with enormous force pulled by his ungodly will, and he did not try to be subtle to avoid damaging the realm, the actions of the World Stele had been duplicitous from the start, and it would be a mistake to be holding back at a time like this when everyone had set down their masks.

Doom Star was his enemy’s playground now, and whatever advantage that it might have given him before would soon be denied to him, so before that could happen, it was better to destroy it, and his ascension to the fifth dimension was an opportunity for him to destroy this Eternal realm.

He seemed to hear a cry of disbelief and an adhered roar that should be a threat from the World Stele, but reality was still passing by so slowly in his senses and Rowan would not be listening to the arguments of the World Stele in any manner, so anything it had to say was useless to him. Words were weapons that were sometimes more terrible than any blade.

As if the entire realm had been thrown into a giant grinder, Doom Star began to unravel at the atomic level.

The earth shattered, and the skies were brought down, there was a loud cry that emerged deep from every corner of the realm, as true death came for it. This cry was a mixture of the World Stele and the newly arrived memories of Thenos. If their plans were to be completed effectively, they needed this realm to be stable.

If Rowan had a competitor that could rival him in the aspect of Time, then there could be none who could rival him in the aspect of space, unless they were a living dimension like him. Doom Star contained vast intricate networks that consisted of higher dimensional essence that he could not comprehend, but Rowan did not bother to comprehend all of that when he could touch the space all around him and unravel them.

A weird and potent power was fighting against the destruction of the realm, but the mode of attack that Rowan was using was extremely strange and his control over space was peerless, and in addition to all of that he had acted before any party here could stop him, giving him a crushing headstart over the opposition.

With the opposition rising up against him, Rowan would not be able to destroy this realm in its entirety, but he would damage it to an incomparable degree, his being had permeated Doom Star and as he gathered his consciousness he broke down every form of Space he was touching. This action was done instinctively without calling on the power of Intent, and the result was leading to the destruction of Doom Star.

An ocean of rotten blood exploded from every corner of the realm, as its reality began to reveal the rot that had permeated it for all these Minor Eras, mixed with this decaying blood were the flesh and bones of the countless lives that had died in this realm. The foundations of Doom Star were built on death, and no matter what the World Stele was trying to accomplish, Rowan knew that nothing good would come out of it.

The tree was rotten, and the fruits it gave, no matter how shiny its covering was, would be filled with maggots.

Rowan could perform many actions simultaneously, so the destruction of Doom Star was ongoing but his focus was on Nemesis, he accelerated the formation of his right hand, and behind the fleeing ruler of the desert, a gigantic golden arm appeared that seemed to be connected to the breaking earth and sky. The flood of rot that was drowning this shattering realm could not touch this golden arm.

That golden arm had a palm that was nearly bigger than the entire body of Nemesis, a creature that was hundreds of millions of miles tall. In the chaos, it was easy to forget that the combatants here were the size of greater heavenly bodies, and Nemesis whose size was so massive that he could have multiple suns in his palm was the smallest here.

The palm reached through the portal and swiped across the neck of Nemesis, cleanly decapitating the creature.

The power of this simple swipe contained all the mysteries that Rowan understood about space, and although it might appear that his palm had physically cut through the neck of Nemesis, what he had done was stranger. Rowan had located the exact portion of reality that Nemesis was passing through and he had simply unbonded them.

This sort of move was only possible on a realm like Doom Star where his dimension had flooded the entirety of its space so everything here had a part of him inside them and with his perception being supercharged he could perform multiple actions before he could be countered, however, even with all of this, it was not supposed to be this easy to cut through the body of Nemesis but whatever power Thenos’s memories contained as it brushed past Nemesis must have been extremely strange because Rowan discovered that the body of Nemesis was lacking any form of energy except its essence.

Energy whether in the form of Aether or Aetherium could power many abilities of immortal, and the sudden lack of it could create unexpected gaps in their power structure. Nemesis was not as physically imposing as the rest of the combatants here, and the weird haze that covered its appearance should have been its defenses, but after it had been torn down by the passing Thenos, it was easy picking for Rowan.

Flipping his palm over to catch the head of Nemesis and taking it back to Doom Star, this wound he inflicted on it was far too minor to kill this entity, but Rowan’s goal was to prevent it from entering the Great Desert.

He caught a glimpse of Staff, the daughter of Telmus inside the desert, and in her eyes was the pain that Rowan had learned to endure, his attention was drawn to the swirling power that surrounded her body like a storm, and he immediately understood that this power had exceeded her limit of control, and was on the verge of wiping her out, which was a novelty situation to witness even for Rowan, because it was rare if not impossible to see an immortal with the capabilities of summoning powers that were millions of times greater than their threshold.

Rowan’s voice reached her, "That power of yours, give it to me."

He could reach across and pull out the power from her body, but that would shatter her foundations. Staff was also a fifth-dimensional immortal, but her power over space was nothing before Rowan’s own, and if he wanted he could take everything from her, talent, lifespan, even her soul—and all of this was something that his increasing power over Space which had not slowed down in its unrelenting growth since he acquired it—gave to him.

Her inner self, which was her Will acknowledged Rowan’s power even before her conscious mind could register this change, it was because Rowan’s perception was moving too quickly for her conscious mind to follow, and she released control over the power she was gathering, such an act anywhere else was madness, releasing control over such massive energies that could shatter ten million universes was a one-way ticket to death, but the palm of Rowan took all that foreign power without any hint of struggle, except for his palm dipping down a bit, he carried all that power and took it with him, leaving a few lasting words to calm her sorrow,

"I will not let the sacrifices of any of my children be in vain."

By the time he had retrieved the head of Nemesis from the closing portal, another of his arms had been created, and that arm seized the struggling and headless body of Nemesis that seemed to be in the midst of a seizure, and he brought both parts of the body and slammed them together and a mass of gore, that resembled thick black sludge exploded from between his close palms.

A shrill howl emerged from between his palms, but it was covered up by an increasingly high humming sound akin to the sound of a spinning supernova, as Rowan unleashed all the force that Staff had accumulated into the body of Nemesis, and even as that force was about to penetrate the shrieking creature in his palm, other greater powers were been lined up behind it.
