The Primordial Record

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.

It must be noted that Trion was the size of the sun in Rowan previous life, and could easily fit in a million of his previous world

This leads Rowan to the next part of the book, the topography, and politics of the families.

Trion had seven Continents, each of them were tens of thousands of times bigger than his previous world, which meant Trion was vast, and documenting its myriad cultures was a monumental task, but Rowan was sure there must be records. Except for the gods, it was unknown if any other being had fully travessed the entirety of Trion.

It would be impossible without having an extremely long lifespan to walk the entire length of Trion. Something only the gods had in spades.

Among the seven Continents, two had been embroiled in flames of war for the last 30,000 years, four of the Continents were under the ruling of the Bramian Court and the Justice Council, while the last continent was solely under the Domain of the Minerva family.

The Minerva family only sends their representative to the Justice Council, thoroughly shunning the Bramian Court.

The Bramian Court was the royal house of the Seven families, that oversaw the affairs of the entire Empire. Home to the Ancestors or Earth gods of each family except for the Minerva family.

Every 10,000 years there is a rotation of the Ruler of the Bramian Court among the six families, and the current Ruler of the Bramian court was from the Kuranes family, according to the date the next selection would be ten years from now, when the three thousand year rule of the Kuranes family was over.

This was important information, it meant during the next ten years, the Kuranes family holds the biggest sway in Trion, and with the coming selection of a new Ruler of the Bramian Court, there would surely be chaos.

Rowan noted the date and moved on.

The Justice Council served as the watchmen of the Empire. Elite Dominators from the seven royal families were selected by recommendation of the families or scouted by Top members of the justice Council.

Unlike the Bramian Court, the Justice Council leaned more towards the God King than the Noble families, and it was encouraged by members of the Council for their new initiates to forget all familiar ties and devote themselves to the service of the God King and his Empire.

Officially they appeared to receive orders from the Bramain Court but, internally, their true loyalty lies with the God King, and they had to do so, for they were the judge, jury, and executioner of most Dominator in the Empire, and they wield specific powerful technique only available to them once they became members of the Justice Council.

It was a lifelong service, and the members could not retire, unless they were killed in the line if duty, or they passed away due to their lifespan running out.

It was a rare event for any of the Justice Council to die a natural death, they were hated as much as they were feared, an especially awful combination.

This look into the affairs of the Empire was fascinating, but Rowan had put off checking the information he received from the Covenant for long enough. His second mind was already done with investigating the Anima, and he saw a new advantage to this new mind of his.

The columns in the Palace of Ice that supported his consciousness were limited in their numbers but not their strength. He had detected no reduction in potency of his Split mind, even after more than an hour inside the Origin Treasure of Ohrox.

He was surprised after connecting with the Origin Treasure and placing his consciousness inside that his connection with the Demon Ohrox had increased once more, plus there was a new addition to his Demon body.

The silvery tattoos running all throughout the Demons body began to glow with black flames that were ice-cold. They gave the Demon a forbidden Aura that could freeze the Spirit.
