The words of light drew an angry chuckle from Ti, as two more hands erupted from his side which he used to grab the skull, exerting more force in his attempt to crush it, Demon made a move to stop him, but was held back by Light,
"You are making a mistake Ti, this is the best path, for you and us all. You should be grateful to carry such a burden"
"By blinding to my fate, and leaving my life in all of your hands? That burden? I was never made to walk with my eyes closed, Light. I am Ti! You all are not giving any chances. I have never cared for eternity, only your trust. If I was a coward, I would have left, I would have gone so deeply into the Nothingness that you could never find , yet I stayed behind, and yet, none of you were willing to allow to complete my vision. Tell , who betrayed who?"
Light shook his head, "We do not do this out of hate, fear, or spite, but necessity, do not think you are the only one to be making a sacrifice, we all would pay. By blinding your reach into the future, this inevitably ans the end of all our sights was marked also. We also shall not know what cos after the Primordial Era, this is a sacrifice that we must all make. In taking away your eyes, we did the sa to ourselves, the board is now balanced and change can begin. This is the right path."
Ti began to laugh, a sound that was so violent that his featureless face tore open, revealing a gash that beca a grisly sort of mouth,
"Forgive Light if I don't see the equality in our sacrifice. I am Ti, of everyone here you should understand how much was taken from by the acts of all of you. I do not fear pain or desolation of living an existence that is eternal damnation, what I do fear is betrayal." Demon stepped forward, his thousand eyes focused on the skull that was about to be shattered, clearly not listening to the words of Ti, with his focus more on the skull,
"We have no reason to betray you, Ti. Unless you give us one. Have I not promised multiple layers of my Abyss for your bloodline alone? Your light shall be most prevalent in all of creation, what more do you seek from us? We all pay a price for our goals. If you were such a coward, why did you choose to beco Ti, when you knew what was to co? You could have faded into nothingness and allowed another to take your mantle."
Ti shook in anger, "Know the future? I was not even aware that the future was my Aspect because it was hidden from until you sprung this plan to aid you all in your great work. I was content to roam the Nothingness for eternity, yet you all drew from my peace and gave fate worse than death."
"Heresy!" Demon roared as the air around them beca charged with power, "How long do you think you can sleep and dream of Nothingness? We gave you purpose!"
Ti shook his head and whispered, "You gave nothing but nightmares! It is already too late, I shall not suffer alone."
"Don't you dare!" Demon roared in anger, his fury so great Rowan thought he was about to destroy Ti on the spot yet once more his anger was cald by a touch from Light,
"It is too late, go and summon the others, especially Chaos to begin the process of creating The Great Darkness, we must recover as much essence of the Torch Dragon before it is all gone."
Demon groaned in anger, took a final look at Ti and he vanished. There was a sickening crack as the skull of the Torch Dragon finally gave way under the relentless pressure of Ti as he tore it into four parts.
Rowan was expecting an intense explosion of energy, but what erged from the skull of the Torch Dragon were fine white clouds of dust that erged slowly for a short while before exploding in volu, and despite Ti and Light being at the epicenter of the explosion, the white dust could not co near them.
The dust rose to the heavens where it t the wind that was Rowan, and it tore into him, and it was all Rowan could do to focus on what was happening below because the white dust held the screams of pain and rage of the Torch Dragon.
The cries continued increasing in intensity until Rowan could no longer hold and his consciousness was frozen by the sheer ntal weight of the cries and everything went blank, but reality snapped around him suddenly, taking him to a new scene.
Sowhere deep in his soul, he felt a new weight and he understood that the transformation of his soul and the ergence of his new bloodline was almost complete, these mories were the remnants left of the Primordial of Ti.
The new reality that was revealed was different from the last, and in this mory, there was only one Primordial here, and he stood at the edge of the greatest waterfall that Rowan had ever seen.
It was a waterfall that was so large it could fit nearly the entirety of the Great Darkness, which was Chaos's Fourth Dinsion that held all of the third-dinsional universe in existence.
Ti appeared nearly the sa as he once did, except this ti he was no longer a featureless face with only eyes, now he had lips and a nose, and his skin was incredibly pale like white marble.
He looked upwards and Rowan, still holding the shape of the wind, looked upwards too and discovered they were not as alone as he thought, there were four other figures standing in the distance.
To asure this distance with miles would be useless for they were many multiple universes away, but their present size was so massive, that Rowan could see only their head, like four large moons looking down at Ti.
Ti looked down with regret before walking towards the edge of the massive waterfall and he stepped off, but he did not fall, he gestured with his hands and a silver ring appeared in front of him. Ti seed to hesitate before he took the silver ring and he turned once more and raised it to the air as if he was showing the other watching Primordials before he slowly placed the ring on his right thumb.
Doing so he sat down crossed-legged in the air and closed his eyes, and Rowan felt a sense of finality around Ti, as if he had just made a decision that would an he was not moving from this place for all eternity.
It was then that Rowan heard the sounds of chains coming from a distance, and at first, Ti seed not to be aware of the sound, but a frown crossed his face and his eyes slowly ca open, but Rowan could see that even this action seed difficult for him to do, as if the ring was suppressing all of his energy.
His gaze turned to the bottom of the waterfall and his pale features nearly turned translucent as he whispered, "So you still betrayed ."
