The Primordial Record novel Chapter 179

Chapter 179 Killing A Continent (4)

The thoughts of traversing seemingly endless forests and glades, and meeting elves felt like a part of his fantasy coming true.

He wondered about their cultures and traditions, were they vegetarian or did they eat meat? How long were their lifespan compared to other Nobles? So many questions he wanted answers to.

Huh. Never knew I had this side to me.

He was a bit familiar with this family, not by name, but by their deeds. This family housed the Temple of the iron god. It was the Volgim family.

Their Progenitor was the god Volgim. He controlled the Pathway of Iron. Volgim is one of the most respected of gods in all of Trion. He allowed his descendants to create the Temple of the Iron god.

Worshiped by both Artisans and Warriors, the Iron God bestowed his bloodline with total command over metal, making them the best smiths and also one of the most dangerous warriors in all Trion. They had formidable metallic golem companions that they upgraded with every growth in their bloodline.

Rowan fantasized about an army of golems similar to terminators, and even worse. Every god pathway was powerful in their own right.

The next family was the Horush family. Their Progenitor was the god Horush. The path he controlled was the Pathway of The Giant. Coincidentally, this was Maeve's pathway, which also called into question her lineage, and how a Dominator from one of the seven families would become a maid for another.

Although Rowan had never seen her perform any of the bloodline technique of the Horush family or if she had, it had been torn from his mind, according to the book, the Horush family control and bonds with magical creatures.

They could merge with an increasing number of beasts as they got stronger, and a calamity similar to what was happening on Jarkarr could be easily orchestrated by them.

Rowan frowned and took note of this god Volgim. His intuition telling him there was a detail he was missing because of this new information he had uncovered, but for now, he could not fully piece it together.

He had become familiar with this next family, and he was currently under one of the planets they controlled. Of course, it was the Boreas family.

Their Progenitor was the god Boreas, and the Path he controlled was the Pathway of the Storm callers. It was said that Boreas was among the most powerful of gods, but he was also shrewd, preferring negotiations to battle.

He loved the smell of treasure and his personality was similar to a dragon. Yet, anyone who sees that as a weakness, would sooner learn a painful truth; Boreas wrath was legendary, and he never forgave a slight.

Rowan knew with his plans for this planet, that he might just have made a powerful enemy, but if the stories of Boreas love for treasures were true, then there may be another path to dealing with this fickle god.

The last and the strangest by far was the Minerva family. Their Progenitor was the goddess Minerva, and she controlled one of the most mysterious paths, which was the Pathway of Web. Her descendants were secretive and kept to themselves.

Of all the gods, only this family had no planet outside Trion, and their Dominion was on the fifth Continent alone. Although, they did not make any visible movements. The Continent they controlled was a forbidden area, for no one who entered without their permission had ever returned.

Their insistence on having no other worlds under their control, but a single Continent may seem like a loss, but even the addition of the hundreds of minor worlds ruled by Trion was not equal to the size of a single of its continent in terms of land mass, and these minor worlds were not necessarily small, with Jarkarr as an example being fifty times bigger than his previous world.
