Thenos was being reborn, previously this process was hidden by a vast cloud of darkness and only the two eyes of Thenos blazing like the sun could be seen, but with the movents of the Eye, his form was revealed.
Slowly descending from the sky was a massive womb, and from countless wounds that dotted the womb bled darkness and all the foulness that could be found in existence.
Thenos had been corrupted by the powers of darkness and his warped mind that were never given the chance to fully understand reality, and the World Stele was not a fool, it realized that if it resurrected Thenos as he was without attempting to cleanse the foulness inside of him, then the chaos that would arise from that decision was sothing that even the World Stele feared.
The massive formation it created was only to facilitate the resurrection of Thenos, but most importantly with the souls of the constantly tortured inhabitants of Doom Star, it aid to cleanse Thenos of the taint in his body.
Although after countless eons the usefulness of the souls was nearly at an end, they had cleansed a lot of the darkness, but they had their limits, and Thenos was nearly a limitless being, but the World Stele was planning to burn every soul inside of Thenos in a massive fiery conflagration that would most likely drain the soul origin of these souls to a dangerous state, and most would be entirely destroyed by this act, however, it did not care, this fiery doom for the souls would cleanse Thenos of all the madness that was inhabiting his body, spirit, and soul.
By stealing the souls from the grasp of the World Stele, Rowan had no idea how much he had hampered the operation that it had put in place for so long. However, with the number of souls inside Thenos being ridiculously massive, Rowan had been unable to collect all of them in a single instant, leaving the World Stele enough souls to burn, so it could start the process of cleansing Thenos, but what should have happened almost instantaneously if it had access to all the souls beca a prolonged affair.
The World Stele was not a being who would dwell in regret for long, it knew that it had severely underestimated Rowan, but it needed to focus on the threat at hand, and although everything might seem incredibly chaotic at the mont, it was still incredibly confident because of the strength of its host. The reason it had descended on Thenos even before he was born, was due to his matchless talent.
With his awakening, the World Stele could trigger so of those talents, and even if it was the least among them, it feared no one here.

Rowan understood at this mont that the Eye of Ti going after the Primordial Essence was a mistake because while Ti was here it did not go for the Essence and for whatever reason he did not do so, Rowan had no idea, he could only infer that using Primordial Essence was a surefire way to draw the attention of Primordials, and he believed that the reason that the World Stele was pursuing the Primordial Essence was that it had a way to utilize it without drawing the attention of Primordials, a trait he was sure that the newly awakened Eye might not possess.
Born a mont before, the Eye of Ti was still incredibly naive, still thinking it was invincible, and that would be its downfall.
In the end, he could not let the Eye of Ti acquire the Primordial Essence nor allow the World Stele to acquire it either. However, in a stunning turn of events, Rowan was now preparing to aid the Eye of Ti, not because he was fearing for its life, Rowan now understood that it was impossible to kill the Eye, but because his instincts were screaming at him that the World Stele and Thenos were the most dangerous party here, and he would need to allow the Eye crack open so of their secrets so that he could prepare for it.
Rowan charged after the Eye of Ti and above his left palm sothing was beginning to actualize.
It was a green tallic book.

Rowan had already used one of the three books he created that could steal part of the powers of the World Stele, and after employing it he had acquired the power to collect the souls of the mortals and immortals that had existed on Doom Star after being carried here by the World Stele.
Even till this mont the flood of souls entering his dinsion had not ended, and they were fueling his growth, but now he had reached a state where he was saving more of the Soul Crystals than using them, but he knew that soon he would have completed analyzing the fragnts of Ti inside of him, and then he could be completing his dinsion, at that ti, he wondered if the souls on Doom Star would be enough.
Rowan did not know that at this mont the World Stele had already begun burning the souls inside Thenos and his seemingly endless bounty of souls was about to be exhausted, however, he was lucky that the World Stele was a rather studious Singularity, and the wealth of souls it had acquired over many eons were truly stupendous in number and what had fallen into the hands of Rowan had aided him in one of the most crucial steps of his ascension.
Rowan had created three books, and he had used only one of them, it was ti for the eighth book to be used.
The seventh book had been black, it signified the blackened souls of the damned that Rowan had found their redemption, and the eighth book that he summoned now was green.
Floating above his left palm, Rowan was about to flip open the book, when the consciousness of the World Stele descended on him like a flood.
"Your foolish ga ends here Rowan, I have endured your interference in this matter for long enough!"
Rowan's body froze, unable to make a single move, the power descending upon him was not equal to a fraction of what Ti had exuded when he had arrived, but it should be at least five percent as palpable. Which was a ridiculous concept when he thought about it. He was inside the domain of the World Stele and so it was expected that its powers would be enhanced.
The green book was seized by a potent force and taken away from the hands of Rowan, as the World Stele crooned in satisfaction,
"You shall watch how everything plays into the path I have made. It should not have been this way Rowan, you would have made a capable General under Thenos, even now, I am willing to allow you to serve him, despite your iniquities."
In the distance, the Eye of Ti had nearly touched the womb of Thenos when the bright glowing eyes of that being that could be seen through the walls of the bleeding womb flashed, and the Eye of Ti froze in the air before it began to fall.
"This is your last chance Rowan, serve Thenos, or perish!"
