He may have lost out by losing his Soul but he had a worthy replacement in the form of his consciousness pillars and Knowledge Well.
Rowan had left only two consciousness pillars for his use when outside battle, it was more than enough.
He went to the side of Eva who was watching both the massive numbers of Angels of Char, the Divine Tree growing in the distance, the enigmatic City of Sheol, and the dazzling amounts of Soul Crystals that represented an oncoming upsurge in their strength.
Her breathing was rough as she did not expect this amount of improvement in the short time that Rowan was sleeping.
Calling her to his side, Rowan began to outline the plans he had for his growth.
The first on his agenda was to grow his own personal power. He was in the second Great Circle and for an average Dominator that would be he was in the first of the three realms which was the Spirit Territory Realm, after that was the Incandescent Realm, and finally the Proclamation Realm.
For a normal Dominator, this was the start of a grueling journey to ascend through the Realms. They would have to gather various exotic resources to build their Territory, like magical earth, alloys, or even living creatures.
This second Great Circle was also called the Great Equalizer, for building your Territory did not require much talent on the part of the Dominators, only good luck and a lot of resources.
If you were lucky enough to reach the Second Great Circle with bad talents, then with enough riches, you would be able to grow your Territories until you ascend through the Realms to the Peak of the Second Circle.
If you were lucky enough even without riches, you could come across great treasures that would propel you through the Realms in the blink of an eye.
This was the generally acceptable method of growing your Realms as a Dominator, but there was a second method that was considered taboo.
Rowan only learned this due to the fact that even at this moment, he had ten Angels inside the Great Families of Trion, where they funneled information to him.
This method was taboo because it only worked on members of the same bloodline. This method was devouring the Territory of others.
This could only be used on members with similar bloodlines and Pathways, ultimately their Territories no matter how different it was on the surface still belonged to a single bloodline from their primogenitor.
There were risks to such activities, but if a Stronger Dominator had a robust will, they would be able to devour the Territories of those weaker than them.
Rowan allowed this information to pass through his mind while looking at the Sea of Darkness below him. The vast Sea was an indicator he had stepped into the Spirit Territory Realm.
