This was a calamity for Rowan for much of his hidden network in the Empire and the Cerulean galaxy had just been compromised.
This would mean he would have to pull all of his undercover Angels from their duties as they had all been compromised. Rowan was sure that there would be people powerful enough to sense some abnormalities in his angels as soon as fell into that deathlike slumber.
With what had happened here, he may have lost years of progress in his infiltration, but Rowan knew the rewards he gained for the price he paid were worth it.
Rowan looked at the stillness of his Mental Space and smiled, "So this is what it would look like at the moment of my death."
His mental Space was larger than an average galaxy, and it appeared so still as if an entire universe had gone silent. There had been so much activity ongoing inside of this place that he had taken for granted and now that everything was still as a rock, he could appreciate the grandness of this vista before him.
His city of Sheol was still shining, and although it appeared to be moving very slowly, his City was still transforming, in the distance, he saw the four Archangels with their four wings spread wide, suspended in the air as if trapped inside Amber.
Slowly the flow of time was beginning to return to his Mental Space since his Consciousnesses had all returned.
For someone who fed on death, Rowan had ceased being afraid of the phenomenon of dying, and if he survived the next few upcoming years, sooner or later the number of beings in the universe that would be able to kill him would get smaller until he became something like Chaos, a being that could never be killed, only contained.
Rowan now realized that his consciousness pillars served a more profound use than he had first thought about, and every operation that was linked to him was not as autonomous as he had once thought it was, and that idea greatly troubled him.
Rowan did not know when he would be dying, and he was not arrogant enough to believe that he was free from the clutches of death at this time.
Yet he had always thought that at his moment of death, his legacy might remain, including all his children, but according to what he was seeing if he died, all his dominion would follow shortly behind him, it was not easy to kill him and even now, Rowan wondered what it would take to truly kill him, since his Primordial Bloodline was the seat of his consciousness.
Yet it would mean if he was ever managed to be killed, everything he had wrought would be gone, and his story would end.
He did not know how to truly feel about this. and he was silent for a while until he shook himself from his malaise, there was something he could do to avoid that situation, if he could not, then he would just refuse to die.
