The Primordial Record

594 Cocoon Of Change

Rowan and Eva sat on that beach that had become filled with a rising golden fog as the planet had become filled with the Essence of his World Seed and the transformation had begun.

This process was now faster and much more humane as Rowan had become more familiar with seeding worlds, the loss of life due to the transformation of the planet had been reduced to virtually zero, and everything was being transformed, blessed with his unique bloodline, and the same way he was birthing Angels from his Sheol Bloodline, the children that would be born from these planets would carry his Ouroboros bloodline and like his Angels they would be powerful.

With his growing powers, he may have to leave the universe much quicker than he expected, and if he was going to do so, then his children that would be left behind must be powerful, well, if his plans went according to plan, then his children would be the rulers of this universe before he left.

When the last grain of sand became stained with his Aura and the scream of the world consciousness faded, he was done with his mortal meals, he ate the last of the meat and drank the last of the wine, such weak mortal food would no longer be grown on this world, everything here would be different… stronger, even the grass.

Rowan rose to his feet and continued rising into the air and in a second he was outside the planet. The formerly blue and white world was now golden, as its entire surface was covered with apocalyptic storms as the transformation of the world was underway.

With his eyesight, he could see that on the surface of the planet, the waiter who served him his meals a short while back had dozens of golden tendrils pierced into his body and he was being liquified.

As his body melted, a large man-sized cocoon was created from his discarded shell and soon it began to beat a slow heartbeat. All around the planet, billions of these coccons were being created, some of them were as small as a mustard seed, and the others were as large as a mountain range.

There were faint stirrings inside all of them that Rowan could feel and he smiled, he could never get tired of this feeling, as the bond between him and his children slowly grew stronger.

Eva appeared beside him and watched as the fog transformed into massive golden clouds across the entire planet, and great thunderstorms began to grow, so strong that they even reached outside the mesosphere.

Eva turned and asked him, "This world has been successfully seeded. Will this finally be enough for your great project?"

Rowan smiled, "I have had enough planets to begin the plan a long time ago, the first draft of the plan was supposed to be just 100 planets, there would have been no way to make it better, but with time, and my growing abilities, alongside the treasures I have collected and all the constant refinement from Knowledge Well, meant that I have been able to supercharge this plan to be worthy of my bloodline and power, every move I make from this point must be greater than anyone can ever anticipate. My enemies from this point would be… dreadful."

Eva paused and seemed to hesitate, Rowan noticing her expression smiled before saying,

"You think what I'm doing is going to break a balance in the universe, don't you?"

Eva considered his words for a while before replying, "I think this universe and all other universes is already broken, and any action we take would not break an already broken board. We can only rebuild something better from the ashes. Especially this universe, I can't put my finger on it, but there is something wrong with it."

Rowan considered her words and said, "Because of the presence of my father inside this universe?"

"Partly, but it is mostly because of you. Any universe that houses a treasure such as the Singularity is bound to be different from the rest. If not for the obstruction by your father then I'm sure with your presence, this universe would have been transformed into something very different a long time ago, but as it would seem, your coming is inevitable and the universe is already beginning to change."

Rowan held his hands towards the planet below and a massive golden hand appeared and seized the planet and it began to shrink, causing the world itself to shrink alongside it until it finally settled on Rowan's palm.

"For the challenges I face, I will have to constantly break the rules, it is inevitable. Let us be on our way, it's time I create my Destroyer."

A blue light covered both of them and they vanished.

They both reappeared in a place now being called The Forge.

With the death of the Cerulean Gods, Rowan had been able a harvest a bounty of materials and resources that was shocking to its extreme, previously he had once thought that harvesting planets was the greatest method to gather the universe's resources, and that was true for low-level resources, but for the high-end materials that Rowan needed, then the best place to collect them were from the gods.

Take, for instance, the materials of Murrihm's Divine Kingdom were made from an extremely rare ore called Star Iron. To find a few thousand tonnes of this material, one would have to search through a vast area of space, and the chance to find it was very low, yet Rowan was able to harvest more than thirty million tonnes of this Ore before the destruction of the Divine Kingdom.

Similar events with the rest of the gods followed, as he was able to gather such a vast sum of materials that many of the previous models he had placed down had to be revamped, as he began to experiment with these new materials and upgraded all the Divine Metals he had created before.

With his Hollow Forge, he could perform miracles with all these materials, yet the project he was undertaking was so intricate and massive in scope, that he could not create them entirely inside his Hollow Forge.

Beside him space parted and a boy who seemed to be about seven years old stepped out from the crack and bowed to Rowan, around him floated hundreds of tools, and his eyes that were entirely white was bright, and lively and he bowed towards Rowan and Eva before announcing.

"The plans for the Core are completed, Creator."

Rowan nodded, "Show me."
