Vraegars body was very powerful, at least fifteen times as powerful as Rowan's body when he was at the peak of the Rift State and about eight times stronger than Dorian's body at the same level. That was not counting the protections of his scales and other powers he would have awakened.
It was hard to put such physical dominance into context. Vraegar should be at least five times more powerful than he was previously when he was a Shadow Dragon at the Third Great Circle, and he would be able to tear his previous self to pieces using only his physical body.
If Vraegar and Fury had a rematch, Rowan would be very curious about the outcome of that battle. Vraegar Constitution and powers had changed in drastic ways that would be hard to judge unless he erupted when he battled, nevertheless Rowan knew it was potent, and he was sure the only reason he could be imprisoned by Eva was because he allowed himself to be locked up, most likely due to the fact that he was fighting a battle within him also, alongside his loyalty to Rowan and the fear of him.
Rowan did not know how long he had been sleeping and how far his Angels would have developed, for they needed a decade before they became fully grown.
If he had been sleeping for a decade then any Angel would be able to tear Vraegar apart because a fully grown Angel was equal to a Fourth Great Circle Dominator or an Earth god.
If not, then he was sure that apart from Archimedes that may hold back Vraegar for a little while, no one here in this Divine Palace was his match.
That meant he had to be careful with his dealings with Vraegar at this time, he may have pledged himself to Rowan, but now his position was not stable. He should not come in contact with Vraegar but someone else closer to him, like Eva or his Angels, so this meant that he would have to wait.
The wait took another four months, but Rowan had become used to spending a large amount of time in isolation, and he simply waited it out as he made plans for the future.
Yet, he was not idle, as he made a surprising discovery, he realized that a massive chunk of the stolen Essence responded to his presence and when his reflection entered into it, the energy appeared to be beneficial to it, and so he began to divert the Essence subtly into his reflection, and began growing in strength.
He had experimented leaving Vraegar's body, but he discovered his reflection could not last for long outside a living vessel. He would have to possess a weaker body to function properly before he might begin to make any other move.
