The Primordial Record novel Chapter 1961

Capítulo 1961: Descend Into End

Noctis beckoned to Rowan, “Walk with me. For you to learn more, I would have to show you the truth, and that would not be possible unless you are baptized.” He began to walk, and Rowan followed, and then he paused and glanced back, “Unless you are afraid to take these steps with me.”

Rowan’s eyes flashed golden, a roar from a beast that seemed to have devoured countless realms emerged from his body, and Noctis grimaced at that sound, as he remembered the unfathomable monster standing here with him. He sighed dramatically, “Of course you are willing to see this through to the end, else you would not be here. Follow me then, and be baptized in the blood of the old so you can see the new… That Aura you are feeling from the hammer and the forge, that is the clash between what was and is, and if that separation is not cleansed, you will never be able to understand the past.”

A passage suddenly revealed itself in front of them that was facing below, as if this temple had a basement. As Noctis stepped foot inside the passage, the torches hung on both sides of the path began to light up, revealing that it extended for many miles. Rowan paused for a moment before he followed.

Noctis’s voice echoed through the passage as they walked, “Before we met the Primordials and made a deal with them, we did not know much about the significance of this place. We were not the first to find it; there had always been rumors about the existence of this place, and the Architects spent many years and countless resources to confirm its existence. And then we discovered an unknown power here that defied all meaning.”

The passage suddenly sloped down steeply, turning their walk into a freefall. Rowan maintained the same descending speed with Noctis as his mind grabbed every single detail he was seeing, down to the particles, and was sending them all to Eos.

“I cannot even remember how many died before we located this temple. The Aura from the hammer, especially, was wild in the past, and this entire zone used to be known as the most dangerous place in all of existence, but the Architects, after understanding the significance of this place, paid a heavy price for wiping the knowledge of this place from every single record in existence.”

They fell for what seemed like years, and Rowan stopped counting the time as it went on, ultimately knowing that in this place, time was meaningless, but he felt a slight bit of apprehension in his heart when he noticed that the deeper they went, the connection with Eos began to grow faint.

It was not as if there was any force interfering with their connection; if they were Rowan, he would have retreated and found a way to break this barrier. Instead, what was causing this issue was simple… it was distance.

Rowan had never expected that distance for him would ever be an issue; his connection with his main body was so profound that it did not matter which corner of Limbo he found himself, he would always have an unbreakable bond with his main body, because they were still one and the same person in the higher-dimensional realm they controlled.

While others were seeing Rowan as an individual being, the way Eos saw him was as one of his fingers, and even if Eos stretched his hand across the curtain to touch the other side of existence, it was still his hand, and he would be able to sense everything happening to it. With his present levels, the entirety of Limbo fell within his reach.
