The delay and the stalemate allowed change to occur or in this situation, it allowed for the creation of what started this entire thing in the first place. Fusion began to take place. The force of possibilities lost the struggle. Origin, Chaos, and Divine flames started to fuse by the force of possibilities.
Part of the Chaos flame was transferred to the other souls and the same happened to the divine flame. The struggle allowed these two flames to spread to the other souls. Then the three flames began to fuse by using up the force of possibilities as the impetus for the change.
Origin flame is the first flame that burned within the ocean of primordial chaos at the beginning of the universe. It is the spark of order that gave Order to chaos. It is Order. It is rules. It is control. It has been called different names. The original flame. The first flame. The flame of creation. A piece of it no matter how small is very powerful. It isn't something that came from the void universe. It is something that brought about the void universe.
The three flames began to fuse except this time the eternal soul of the clones of Legion are involved. 6 of them are the sources of the origin flame. So the 6 of them can control the reaction during the fusion. The other two just have to hang on till the fusion is complete.
It's like walking on a tightrope or on the edge of a cliff. They can't speed up the rate of reaction of the fusion too much or they will lose control and be destroyed. They also can't be slow with the reaction or Aeternus and the Tree father will become too tired and let go of their flames. That will lead to losing control and getting destroyed. They have to maintain balance and tread carefully or they will fall.
Achieving balance is easier said than done. It isn't easy when your mind is literally on fire. None of the flames are friendly to others. The origin flame was already too much. The addition of the divine and Chaos flames more than tripled their pain. Those two extra flames will burn anything they come in contact with and like to burn exposed souls the best.
The 6 in control have to endure the pain of their souls burning. The burning is creating the origin flames and it is being fuelled by Origin energy. The pain is overwhelming. It is tempting to just let go and die. The pain will certainly end when they die. The other two have to withstand the force of attraction pulling on their Authorities to rip it out of their souls.
But they didn't choose to lose control and die. They chose to fight. There isn't any one thing that made them all determined. It could be their obsession with power. Or the laughter of derision they got from the three consciousness. Or the scorn from the fourth consciousness. Or the fact that they were pulled against their will towards a place they know nothing about and judged without being capable of interfering at all. Or it could be that they have each other to rely on.
It could have been anything that made them determined or a collective of numerous things. Whatever it is, it made them hold on and wait through the fusion. The origin flame expended the force of possibilities to fuse with the chaos and divine flame to Create POWER.
Then POWER collapsed except this time it collapsed on the 9 souls. It attached itself to their souls like the initial singularity of possibilities. It won't create any problems because it has been assimilated by the law matrix of the void universe. Then the universe resumed and the clones of Legion woke up from their nightmare.
Aeternus's eye sockets blazed as his soul awakened. He looked around and found everything to be the same. He would have thought all they experienced earlier was a nightmare that they all experienced if not for the terrible headache that is threatening to split his head.
They are still in a forest and the wind is still blowing gently through the leaves of the trees making soft rustling sounds. Only a short three seconds have passed since their mistake. Nothing seemed to have changed except Helios. His body collapsed but he isn't dead so his body is rebuilding itself.
A tiny star is blazing brightly and creating a large halo of golden light. The rays of light being produced began to weave together like golden threads to form Helios' body. It is a weird sight, to say the least, but Helios is healing and that's all that matters. Aeternus was more concerned about the black orb floating around in circles around Helios. He knows that all seven other clones including Legion-1 all have the black orb.
The only clones that don't have the black orb floating around them are him and the tree father. Instead, their Authority has changed into a black orb. Aeternus's red crystal between his horns has become a black orb and so has the tree father's Godhood changed into a giant black orb. Something very strange is going on with the dragon clone though.
"I don't feel any different," Aeternus muttered as he examined himself.
He felt for changes in his body and soul and found nothing. He just feels extremely drained and weakened. He expected to feel empowered after going through all of that.
He just shook his head and sighed. He felt relieved just like the other clones of Legion. It is right to be relieved after having a very close encounter with death. It isn't the death of a single clone but the complete and total death of Legion. They would never have resurrected. Their entire existence would have been destroyed. They had felt that distinct possibility and it was sobering.
"I can't control it." Soverick said.
"I don't feel any difference." Legion 6 added.
"I feel something. It broke me free." Legion 7 said with excitement and relief.
Numerous reports from other legions kept coming in. They didn't feel any difference apart from Legion-7 that suddenly became free from a certain enslaved situation.
