The Primordial Record novel Chapter 1574

Chapter 1574: Eosah

Caine had expected to wait a long time before he was called to service, and he was left to sit with nothing but his consciousness and relentless voice in his head. Caine hated to be in this place, as dwelling on his memories was as great a torture as what he suffered at the hands of Primordial Chaos.

Sitting on a grain of sand inside the Great Desert, he had nothing but time to contemplate his life choices, and he could not stop himself from falling down memory lane to the times when everything seemed much more straightforward.

Reaching so far into the past, even with the powerful mind of an Old One, was quite strenuous, and Caine hated every single moment he spent sinking into the distant past, but he could not stop himself. Like a fly following a decaying corpse into the grave, he could not loosen himself away from his memories.

“How did it all come to this? How could I have ever been so blind to have fallen so far?”

One should not push past their limits, and his greed had forced him to crave something that he would be unable to hold if provided to him on a silver platter. It was surprising that it took so long for him to understand this fact despite the many opportunities in the past that should have taught him this lesson.

He had always craved the title of a Primordial and all the powers associated with them because he knew that only becoming a Primordial would assure true immortality.

However, he was approaching the end of his life, and Caine could feel it; even if he did not die in battle, the end of his existence was rapidly approaching.

Caine had once told Shamaran that he was incredibly old, more older than she could ever imagine, and Rowan was there. However, by then, Rowan did not understand the genuine concept of death, unlike other immortals who could feel its touch, and he did not fully realize what it meant for an Old One to refer to himself as old.

Reality was far older than most in existence could ever comprehend. Most immortals only knew of two Major Eras, the Primordial Era and the Supreme Era, but Caine had already lived through twelve Major Eras! _{ƒгeewёbnovel.com}

Most would not know this knowledge, but from its conception to the present day, Reality has existed for a total of twelve Major Eras. Only two Major Eras are known to Reality, and ten were placed in darkness.

He was among the first in existence when Reality asserted itself in the Cosmic Record, and if there was ever an immortal that should be called an Old One, Caine warranted that title.

Although he was not immortal at the beginning of existence, the sheer volume of Primordial Essence in Reality ensured that he was virtually immortal. For a long time, he and the firstborns of Reality lived in harmony in a land where there was no want.
