The Primordial Record novel Chapter 238

Chapter 238 Forgone Conclusion

Rowan picked up the glowing heart, and watched as the heat and light slowly faded from it, and it began falling apart, as six serpents the size of worms drilled their way out of it. They had just consumed Dorian's entire Territory, which was the Mayfly Tree.

They had gained enormous benefits from doing so, as Rowan knew that their sizes had increased once more, as consuming material dense with energy were now being allocated to their own growth and not been pushed into the Chaos Engine, he also felt the strain on his body loosen a bit, as he knew he could now push his Avatar of Eve bloodline forward a bit.

But the benefits were not over, killing Dorian still gave him more.

Rowan suddenly shook, and his breathing became rough, as there was no air on the moon, his body was just going through familiar motions, he felt a dull heat in his spine as a soul the size of a mountain began streaming into his Palace of Ice and expanding the size of the purple moon inside.

It was almost painful consuming a soul as large and dense as Dorian, even though it was now damaged as a result of the powers of the blade. If he had tried to consume such a soul when his bloodline was still those of a Soul Reaver and he still had a Soul it would have damaged him, most likely torn his Soul apart, and he would have to take a long time to recover.

Dorian soul had a unique quality as he was on the verge of the third circle that made it seem immortal, and he felt he was chewing on a hardened piece of leather as he wrestled to consume the soul fully.

There were many flashes of memories, most of them were incomprehensible, as they were just fragments of disjointed lights and sounds with no clear organization, but only one stayed with him, it was the central figure in Dorian Soul, and he felt he held it in such high esteem and sheer terror.

It was of a woman with waist - length hair that was red like blood, she was in armor and held a blade made of bone and flames. A name came to him— Scarlet.

Was this his mother? So when he introduced himself as Dorian, the Son of Scarlet, he meant that quite literally. Why does this figure seem familiar? I have seen pictures of her before.

Rowan thought quickly identified through his messy memories of the prince's life, and he soon came upon a single memory of a lady in flaming armor sitting on a throne, as all the children of Kuranes family bowed to her during their initiation as a Noble when they were anointed with Ambrosia and given the gift of the tongue of Medan.

That was the only memory he had of this figure. Most likely she was a higher up of the Kuranes family, perhaps she might even be the ruler of the Kuranes household, the current Ancestor, and the reigning queen of the Bramian Court.
