To the Primordials and everyone else, the life emerging from all over the ten thousand Origin Realms was random and was simply an effect of the realms’ powerful nurturing effects on life.
Only the few Primordials whose concept was close to the soul may suspect that there was something more happening, but their understanding was limited by what they knew.
What no one understood was that the life emerging inside the Origin Realms was not random; no, Eos was pulling them from history, cleansing their Soul Origin of the power of End, and placing them into the Origin Realms for them to be reborn.
Their names on the scales of the Ouroboros Serpents contained all the taints of End accumulated when they perished, leaving only their pure Origin remaining.
When the Ancient Primordials crushed Reality after Reality, most of the souls that were lost were gone, even their Origin, but Eos, using the bone he had discovered from Circe’s dream, saw a path to retrieve all of these lives from End.
He did not fully understand this process, but he realized that this must be due to the actions of Incarnation. Eos did not know how the Incarnation did it, but somehow he must have found a way to link the souls lost inside End to him here in the present.
His Incarnation might be far from him, but they were still connected in such a profound way that only true death and obliteration could shatter that bond.
Eos did not understand what the Incarnation was doing in the past, but here in the present, he could harvest all the souls from the past and merge them into the Origin Realms.
His Origin Land, on the other hand, was still massively expanding, and Eos did not even know how strong he had become, but if the serpents’ ever-expanding size was an indicator, then he should be half the size of Hundun, maybe more.
The only thing that would stall his growth was if there was not enough Origin Essence inside the Primordial Record, but for now, there was nothing to fear.
His weakened appearance made the Primordials believe that Eos was paying a great price for any new Primordial that was born.
Originally, with Eos’s rate of growth, he should be able to bear the weight of a hundred Primordials, but that should be over a span of billions of years as his body grew and adapted to this pressure.
Every Primordial knew that Eos was keeping them safe from the madness of Limbo, and those gave them protective instincts that were almost fanatical. They could not allow Eos to fall, even if they knew he was still stronger than all of them put together; they believed that over time, with more Primordials being created, Eos would soon not be able to even move from his position, and he would become the earth beneath their feet and the heavens above their heads.
Their purpose in life would now be to defend their Origin Land and Realms and keep them safe from the hands of the enemy.
