He no longer needed these sorts of resources no longer as they were a mere drop in the ocean of energy he needed, but he would not refuse it, any single drop would eventually pile up.
There was only a single massive book inside the Spatial Ring, and the title was : Compendium of the Seven Divine Houses. On the cover of the book drawn in great artistic details were seven Sigils drawn on the cover with great attention to details.
He recognized only the Sigil of the Kuranes family, which was a volcano with a burning fist over it. With his new bloodline, Rowan had become aware of a new truth.
His missing memories were not as a result of a dying mind or disorientation from a foreign soul merging with the prince's. It was just, gone.
There were large spaces of blank void in his memories, that had been dug out, most likely to prevent him from easily spotting mistakes in the carefully arranged charade that was the Nexus.
Rowan sighed, the damages done to him always grew deeper the more he unearths, and all these only served to stoke his fury. But, Rowan was a cold predator, and he would have his prey one way or another.
He had stopped thinking about them as his enemies, they might be more powerful than he was at the moment. But their God King only ruled hundreds of worlds, and he wondered if those would even be enough to sustain him when he was at the fourth Great Circle.
Rowan blew through the entire contents of the book in less than two minutes, finally patching the gaps in his memories when it came to the seven great families of Trion.
As he took a few moments to gather his thoughts, he began to wonder why the Godking did not create any bloodline descendant for himself. Surely, his bloodline was the strongest among all the gods.
But he still dismissed his musings, the machinations of gods were not his immediate concern. He would begin anticipating their meddling when he activated his Ouroboros Legendary Technique, but he had a little time before then. He hoped.
The Compendium served as a window to the world of Trion for him, it opened with the descriptions of all the gods and the Pathway they controlled, before delving into the geography of Trion, and the major powers and conflicts within the Empire.
It was all he needed and more, finally the grand tapestry of the Empire was opened before him, and although the details shocked him, he was still excited nonetheless.
It was a lengthy read, but Rowan was able to concisely summarize all the information after perusing through his thoughts.
The Seven Noble family were descendants of the seven brethren of Golgoth the God King, they were all powerful gods in their own right as their accomplishment spoke for itself.
Rowan learned from the book, that the Gods did not physically dwell on Trion, but their Divine Kingdoms were linked to the planet forming a symbiotic relationship and every positive growth in Trion affected them all and vice versa, which made Rowan also realize that the Covenant who were responsible for attacking Trion must be on the gods biggest enemies list.
Their actions were inadevently weakening the Divine Kingdoms of the gods, except for Golgoth of course. This mysterious God King had placed his Divine Kingdom over Trion, and by all indication, its powers were nothing to scoff at.
Rowan remembered the vision when he was attacked by all the gods, only Golgoth escaped, and although he could not understand a fraction of the powers used in that battle because he was simply a bystander and watching an event that would never have transpired.
He knew the escape of Golgoth from his hands meant this God King had more depth to him than all the other gods combined. It was a sobering thought, as he feared that the God King might be his immediate greatest rival for the foreseeable future.
