The Primordial Record

There was a black band wrapped around the picture, and she loosened it and gave the picture to Rowan, "That’s Sylvia. Don’t say she…"

"She resembles you." Rowan said

"Please, not you too, I don’t see any resemblance between me and her, she has red hair and freckles. I don’t."

"You will just have to take my word for it." Rowan smiled.

"She gave me this hairband as a gift." She paused for a while, and she bowed to him, "it would be my honor if you accept this gift from me, my lord."

Rowan knelt and turned around, so her hand could reach his hair, with subtle manipulations with his Telekinesis, he aided her in placing the hairband around his hair, but since his hair was too thick, she could only scoop a bunch around the middle and tied it.

Her bubbling footsteps as she left made Rowan grin a little, and he opened the message delivered by Circe and found out that the convoy would be stopping the next night for a little celebration around the fires.

Before the Calamity, this was a fairly normal occurrence, as it was not advisable to cram thousands of people into vehicles and drive them to your destination for a whole month without stopping.

But now Rowan had afforded them the chance to be able to relax and break up the tension that had been afflicting them for a while, and Circe hoped that he might attend.

Rowan saw no reason why he shouldn’t do so, and using his Telekinesis shredded the message into tiny dust particles, and deposited it into the bin.

The utility of his Telekinetic ability had increased once more with the addition of the Avatar of Eve bloodline. Its powers had not increased a whole lot, but his ability to perform more complicated actions with it, had apparently increased.

He would have never been able to shred this paper into fine particles before. With the increase of this power, Rowan had a thought, and he immediately began his experiment.

He was very aware of the large scale destructive capabilities of his body, but he had never tried to understand it when it came to doing subtle things, and its interaction with the world on a smaller scale.

As far as he understood, this Telekinetic ability was a side effect of the field of force being projected around his body due to his extremely high Constitution.

This force field was also unique to him, as he had never seen any other Dominators utilizing it, and it permeated through every single inch of his body, even his hair, which was now held together by the little bow given to him by Diane.

His force field had wrapped around the band, else it would have torn to pieces trying to contain a part of his hair.

Rowan lifted his hand and above his palm, an invisible ball of Telekinesis rotated, and he expanded it until it was as big as a watermelon before he reduced it to the size of a coin.

Still keeping it spinning, he placed it on his little finger and began creating more balls of Telekinesis and placed them on each of his fingers, before letting them rotate around his hand like planets in a solar system.

He suddenly paused, and he considered a possibility. Dispersing the rest of the floating Telekinesis balls except one, he began stretching it, until it became as thin as a thread.

With his present purple-black Aether, he could not use any of his Ability Runes without understanding its effects on them first, but that did not mean he was helpless to use his Ability Runes, he could simply use his Bodily Essence to power it.

At one end of the thread of Telekinesis he created a small ball of Flesh Light, and creating a suction force from the other end of the thread, he drew the red flames through the invisible thread, and when he was done, it appeared as if he was holding a thread made from a shining red light.

Rowan smiled, as this new breakthrough in what he could do with his Telekinesis ability surprised him, for this ability had several peculiar aspects, including the fact that it had no alignments, that is he could not mix it with Aether or any element.

It were unable to serve as invisible weapons for him as those of Rift State and above could sense Aether, and if he used Telekinesis, they could feel the void of Aether approaching them caused by his Telekinesis pushing everything away from it.

But what if he could create two sheets of Telekinetic pad and fill in between both sheets with Aether, would it be possible to deceive their senses?

Yet, this was just a minor application that Rowan did not care for. He had no lack of weapons or methods he could use to attack his enemies. What he felt he needed Telekinesis for, was crafting!

Rowan had not forgotten the one thing that made him uncomfortable was his lack of proper clothes to contain his might, and he was not fond of wearing weak fabrics that would tear apart at any moment during battle.

As he still recalled the manner by which that Abomination clothed itself with the red flames, he felt he had just taken the first step.

He had made threads!

The gleaming red line before him was a manifestation of the merger of his Telekinesis and the red flames, which just proved he had cracked the puzzle, now he simply had to learn how to rapidly weave it into any suitable material of his choice.

Since his Telekinesis was close to his body, he could simply pour out flames from his pores and reassemble them into any clothes of his choosing.

The Thread he was holding suddenly snapped, Rowan had been detecting the flames eat through the thin lining of the Telekinesis threads, although he could easily replenish the thread, he wanted to experiment how long it would take before the flames could eat through the threads.

In battle, there may be moments he could not feed his Telekinesis threads, so he wanted to know how long it would take—48 seconds, not a particularly long time, but not too short either. He could extend the time by making thicker threads or reducing the intensity of the flames.

He did not even think about using any other less volatile material for his threads, it felt fitting that the first time he clothes himself using energy, that it should be with the same flames that the Abomination used.

A sign of his progress.

Rowan wanted to start creating his new clothes, but he held back, as he would rather not endanger those beside him.

To experiment on his new powers further, he brought out the Spatial Ring given to him by Circe, and kept it hovering before him using his Telekinesis, and since his Spatial Sight was gone, he began truly using his Empyrean senses.

Rowan’s eyes alone were attuned to energy, but if he paired it with the other senses from his body, then the world was truly revealed to him.

Unlike a human who depended on each individual senses to perceive a different sensation, his was the opposite. He used all of his senses to perceive a single thing.

This was what led to such a phenomenon as his ability to taste colors or see sound. He had never really dwelled on this intricate part of his senses before, but he instinctively knew that he needed to understand the world on a micro level to genuinely make significant changes on a macro level.

Not only that, but he estimated he had a month before his enemies reached him, and so he would grow his powers in ways that no one would expect.

Where they were expecting a brute, he would become a wizard. Where they saw a wizard, he would be a brute.
