The Primordial Record novel Chapter 1435

Chapter 1435 Deep Memory Connections

"Seed," Rowan smiled as he rocketed into the core of the star, he reappeared at the side of his grandfather who was on his feet, and he looked at the old immortal, a part of him wondering why he still thought of him as old when he knew that as immortals they did not age, for he suspected that Seed's aged appearance was due to preference not a reference of his great age, and he must be old, perhaps one of the oldest immortal he had come across. "I have always been curious; how old are you, and what are your true power levels? When I first met you, you told me you are a seventh-dimensional immortal, but now I can see that this is obviously not true; what about Elura? She is not at the fifth-dimensional level, isn't she? Both of you are Old Ones." Rowan blatantly stated.

Seed blinked, and then he laughed, "Why am I not surprised that is the first thing you would say to me? It is good that your time in that godforsaken place did not break you. Instead, you broke it; anything else from you would have shamed my blood. Yes, I believe you are on the right path, but there are some small misunderstandings you still have about me. You know what? Run your speculations by me, and I shall correct your mistakes, but first, sit with me and look at endless realms scattered in the darkness. It is stark, but there is a beauty here that can easily be missed, and when Chaos descends, all of this may be gone. War is coming, one that I'm sure that you took a healthy part in inciting, so look at all of this before it is gone."

Rowan paused as he considered the words of Seed, and then he nodded, and he sat beside the old man, a chair made from plasma, appearing beneath them, and from within the star, they watched all of the existence they could see, and for immortals of their power, they could see far.

"How did you find me?" Rowan asked after a while,

"Your Supreme Circle leaves a trace that I can detect. I know you took it off while inside Doom Star, but even its absence was enough of a void for me to follow. Its memory still echoes if you know how to look for those sorts of things, and I do."

"Oh," Rowan said and went silent once more as he watched the stars. They remained in this manner for hours, perhaps even days, time was fluid, especially when it was meaningless to them, only events occurring counted.

An immortal could stay in a single place for a trillion years, but they would only count the time that passes when they make changes to their environment.

"You know, before the Frozen Road, there were far fewer dimensions, but they were so much brighter then. They needed to be, you see, else they would have been lost in the darkness, and it was a hobby of mine to just watch them swimming in the darkness, like tiny fishes in a grand black river. If you can believe it, every single one of them had distinct colors… every single one. It was amazing. A miracle."

As Old Man Seed spoke, he began to point into the air and a mirage appeared around the reality that Rowan could see, and that reality began to transform into a scene that was set at the beginning of the Supreme Era,

"And then Primordial Chaos created his damned road. I was there, I believe I was standing right at that position, when it came blasting over the lower realms like a flood, crossing through time and space, and although it took billions of years for it to grow to encircle the entire great darkness, its light had killed the glow of every dimension the instant it was created, it was like seeing a miracle being replaced by mediocrity." Seed pointed deep into reality, warping space and time so Rowan could see the precise place he had been standing,

"The war against the Breakers and the powers that stood against the Primes had reached a feverish peak; I had just killed a Breaker; that stubborn bastard nearly killed me, and even in death he left me a present," waving his hand, he gestured to his appearance, "he made me old, and from that moment forth…hahaha, I was no longer Seed, but Old Man Seed, hahaha, of course then I could not see the humor in it, for I was quite beautiful and the ladies, they loved me, and I admit I loved them too, good thing I could have your mother before I was cursed with old age, else you would not have existed, or if you did, you might come out old, which come to think of it would be a funny sight, to see an old infant. Somehow I think you would make it work… you are creative."

Seed seemed to be watching the emotions flow beneath Rowan's face in fascination before he laughed,

"There is no need to be like your mother, always focused on watching herself, making sure that all her plans are perfect, that is no way to live, especially when you have my blood. Ah, I guess our time for relaxation would not be much and there is still much for you to learn about our history and your place in it."

Rowan sighed, "You have very creative ways of dodging answers Seed, or is there something you want from me before you speak… you are the one who says I should be direct; no more games, old man; I have gone through too much in the last few years to endure this idle chatter for long."

Seed's eyes shone and he began to laugh, his voice booming so loudly that the star went out, placing them in darkness, a darkness that erupted into light as Seed willed the star to return,

"You naughty child, of course, I have questions; the purpose of entering Doom Star was to prime you into activating your Supreme Circle, which I can see that you have accomplished; most importantly, it was for you to see the challenges you have ahead in order to conquer that realm. You were supposed to achieve your Supreme Circle, return to the Land of Miracles where you would grow your powers and influence, and then return back to Doom Star to slowly take it apart over the course of billions of years, but in less than two thousand years you succeeded and you stand before me on the precipice of the Dimension of Memory! How the fuck did you think I'm not filled with questions?!"
