2881 Merging Flames (Part 1)

On top of that, Lith shared the same energy signature with his Demons, but all he had obtained by combining his strength with them were Thousand Flames.

After countless hours of training in the Blood Desert, using the tower to protect his cracked life force, Solus had come up with a theory.

"Grandma and Leegaain can use Primordial Flames so it's not something that can only be performed by more than one person. Also, the energy signature is irrelevant as well. Which leaves only one explanation: the secret of Primordial Flames lay in the life force of the users."

"Meaning?" Lith asked with a puzzled look.

"Origin Flames can't be controlled by imbuing willpower in them, only by manipulating the willpower already present in the life force that ignites them. To produce Primordial Flames, you need either an exceptional life force like the Guardians do, or to combine multiple life forces together." Solus replied.

"Isn't that what I always do with my Demons for the Thousand Flames?"

"No. You guys just pile up your life forces but the intent they carry is discordant. If I'm right, the difference between Thousand and Primordial Flames is that the latter doesn't require just the will to destroy but to destroy the same thing in the same way.

"That's why you never produced Primordial Flames with your Demons. They share your energy signature and target, but each one of them tries to accomplish the mission in their own way. When we were fused, instead, we were one.

"We shared the same life force and will. I wanted exactly what you wanted which made it easier for us to succeed. With Tista things are going to be harder because your personalities are very different." Solus had said and she was right.

Tista's Flames were animated by her will like the knife of an assassin, aimed at the vital points of her target while trying to minimize casualties and collateral damage. Lith's, instead, only cared for destruction.

His Flames aimed to annihilate his enemies while also cutting off every possible escape path. If someone or something were close to the point of impact, that was their problem.

Both had trusted Solus' judgment and worked to overcome the issue by using a mind link. They would project in the other's mind how they wanted their respective Flames to work and then met halfway.

Until that moment, they had only obtained explosions of various degrees and only a few tongues of white flames. This time, however, they shared the same will and Life Maelstrom.

Valeron's silver lightning was spread inside their life forces, raising their compatibility and smoothing the conflict between the two Origin Flames.

'I'm going to rejoice when we succeed on our own without external help.' Lith replied. 'Let's see what happens with Cursed Flames while we are at it.'

Tista and Lith were the only two people capable of conjuring them on Mogar so they had no idea what applying the principle behind Primordial Flames would do. The only time they had come close to such a thing was against Night's Chosen.

Back then, however, it had been a fluke caused by the Horseman's interference and the interaction of three kinds of Flames. The result had been a powerful conflagration but how and why was still a mystery.

'Let's go with True and Frozen Flames, then.' Tista said.

She lacked Lith's Abomination side and the only way a Hekate had to conjure Cursed Flames was in pairs. One element would be channeled through the lungs to the mouth while the other would go from the heart to the wings.
