Chapter 601 The Sovereigns 601 The Sovereigns The Teleportation from Lost was smooth and seamless, and the area they appeared in was strange, as it resembled an extremely vast world that was filled with Ice and Metal. This was a unique space that Rowan had created with the help of Lost using the remnants of all the Divine Kingdoms of the Cerulean gods. It was maintained by Lost, and it was utilizing the ability of a Divine Kingdom to shrink space. It existed as a single grain of dust, but inside of it was a space more than a billion miles across. This place was unique and was the crowning point of Rowan's current power, and all the knowledge he had been collecting from Andar about how Dimensions operate because it mimicked the form of a Fifth Dimension as closely as possible while still being inside the three-dimensional universe, this was the only way he could forge the Core without leaving the universe. After all, the Destroyer was a weapon created by outside universal powers. Rowan had drawn on his experience of the environment outside the universe and every single mystical knowledge he was harvesting, paired with the unique abilities of Lost and his Light of Sheol to create this place. This was the true face of The Forge, not the one engraved outside the universe, that one was just a small portion of the overall expanse. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖 When they all reappeared inside this location the Arcane Runes automatically activated and the forging of the Core began. This place was created for only one purpose, and when Rowan entered it, the forging of the Destroyer would commence as his presence was the key, and he could no longer stop it, either he succeeded or he failed, and there was a certain risk, although slim that failure would lead to his permanent death. A risky endeavor, but after balancing it against the alternative of not doing it, Rowan knew that this was the right choice… the only choice. Eva commanded the Angels and the two Spell Weavers under her to the farthest end of the Forge, they were to be the final backups, and Eva hoped they never get to the situation where they might require their help or all was lost, but she knew that sometimes in a battle, even the smallest change can cause the greatest difference. The Two Great Sovereigns took the foremost Formation, and even Eva herself found it difficult to even peer at these Creatures, they blazed with Divine Lights and they were always silent because they had awakened their True Voice, an ability that made their words force changes in reality. This power was similar to Intent but it was stronger in some certain manner that Eva did not yet understand. She knew that the creation of this Space that neared what a Fifth Dimension might be, but still making the space accessible for lesser Dimensional beings like everyone else here except Rowan was due to the powers of the Sovereigns. When they became the sole creation of Rowan, some of their awakened abilities were strange and Eva did not recognize most of them. Their link with Rowan whom they deemed to alone be worthy made it almost impossible to communicate with them, Eva had tried, but she was met every time with silence, and Eva wisely stopped after three times for she did not want to trigger their wrath, although she knew they would never hurt a Vassal of Rowan, she did not like to test the patience of beings she was sure could kill her in a blink of an eye. They had two states, their corporeal state where they appeared like golden titans, standing more than fifty feet tall with six wings, or their battle form, where they grew an extra twenty feet and possessed three heads, fourteen wings, and six arms. A Sovereign was so powerful that they had to always appear in this reduced form or else, no one except Rowan would be able to stay around them for millions of miles. Although they became Sovereigns a few months back, Rowan had always kept their true capabilities under wraps, Eva knew a trump card when she saw it. The reason Rowan had not begun to sweep through the Universe was his incredible restraint that made him treat his vast powers as delicately as a surgeon, he anticipated distant problems and he never wielded his strength without reason. Besides she knew his problems were great, and his sight was ever looking forward, making plans and connections that she was finding more and more fascinating. Eva had to admit that she missed that link between Rowan and herself that these Sovereigns now share, but she had a stronger sense of purpose now that she was an individual creature and not necessarily a part of Rowan's bloodline, and every choice she made seemed to be more fulfilling for her. Eva truly understood that she served greatness, and in the entirety of the multiverse, there could only ever be a single creature like Rowan Kuranes, and it was an honor to serve his dreams. 'I need to start pushing my strength forward, so I can be of more assistance.' She figured out that there was no way she could keep up with Rowan's growing powers, but she could make sure that his plans would always come to fulfillment if she stayed in the darkness and eliminated any fraction of uncertainty in any of his endeavors. That was the entire purpose of her Scribes and Spell Weavers, they were to be the poisoned needle in the darkness overseeing the edges of the light. Eva would free up Rowan's attention from other extraneous activities and let him focus on the overall picture without worrying about the little details. She felt she could do this much to support him. The next row of the guarding formations was held by her and 2,000 Archangels! In eight months Rowan had been able to bring his powers to such great heights that he could destroy the previous Cerulean Galaxy with a small contingent of Archangels, and that was not even adding into the equation the two Sovereigns, Suriel and Erudiel. Each Archangel was carefully selected and although none of them had the potential to become Sovereigns, this was deliberate, for it was difficult to reproduce a Sovereign, because of the greatest factor that could influence an Angel's growth, which was Resonance.
