"I was born at the beginning of Existence, but unlike my sibling, I did not seize any Aspect for myself. The Beast of Final Rest took Death, and when I saw that I could not fight against Death and the Primordials, I chose to become a guardian. This was the only choice for..."
"Wait," Eos interrupted the Beast, "We do not have much time, the Primordials and Death are returning, and you are too weak to remain here. So I have an Agreement for you. Allow me to seal you away and heal you of your injuries. If this crisis can be resolved, I shall reawaken you and can make a new agreement."
The Beast did not take too long before it agreed. "You are a Living Reality stronger than even me, who should have been your guardian. Everything that I have will be given to you. I only ask you to take care of the children I have with me; they have so much potential, and inside Limbo, they would never have the chance to grow."
Eos looked at the Realities being carried by the Beast of Inevitability; most of them had shrunken into themselves, not even having the mental strength to look around. It seemed they had resigned themselves to die, and he sighed inside. He could not blame them; many of the tools of their defense had been taken away, and they were unable to fight for themselves.
However, there were those few Realities whose eyes were bright, and they looked at Eos like mortals seeing their god for the first time, and if not for fear of his reaction, he was sure some of them would have begun to worship him.
"I accept your terms," Eos said and reached for the Beast, causing it to shrink until it was as small as a pebble, and when it landed on his open palm, it transformed into a green turtle-shaped gem as Eos sealed it.
While sealing it, he erased all of Enochโs Rot inside the body of the Beast. There was no reason he should keep the Beast in pain and keep a portion of Enochโs taint near him. Cleansing the rot was easy when it came from the Abomination when it was at its second evolution.
He was about to erase all of the rot, but a thought occurred to Eos, and he kept a small portion of it. There was something odd about the evolution of the Abomination, and he took a small piece of it so he could later study it.
Placing this gem away inside one of his Origin Realms, he closed his eyes and focused his senses on the incoming waves of danger. His enemies were close, but he still had enough time to make his preparations.
Turning around, Eos focused on the 10,008 Origin Realms created by Rowan, a hint of amazement and appreciation in his eyes. If there was ever a reason he did not regret giving all of his Incarnation their freedom, then these Origin Realms were one of them.
Something in Rowanโs unique experience was what inspired him to reach the fifth layer of space and create these realms. Eos could never choose to burn his Origin and give everything up to this power; that was a sacrifice that only Rowan could make, and these realms held unique inspiration and genius that Eos would find hard to replicate.
At the end of his life, Rowan had not only given Eos a lot of Origin Essence of Space, but had also given him all the knowledge he had gained at the end of his life, and so Eos understood everything about the Origin Realm, but it did not mean he could create more if he wanted to. Every Realm left was extremely precious, and Eos had a plan to take advantage of these realms.
