Back To Aeternus.
"Xander will be a great Herald." He said to himself as he flew towards the divine plane.
A lot has changed for Legion in this short while. They have learned a lot about the black orbs but there is still so much that they don't know. Fortunately, they now know what they need to do to learn more about the black orbs.
Helios has gleaned more information about the universe due to his new position. A star connected to a deep layer of the law matrix gets to know a lot of things that others don't know and see things in a new way. Soverick's eyes went awry as if on Steroids because of the black orbs. It also allowed them to come to the result of what is needed to get control of the black orbs and what they should call them.
Soverick said to them. "The black orbs are bottled-up power so we'll call them Shards of power. We need to be able to bear the power and need to remove them from the law matrix of the void universe to do it. The only way to achieve the two is to become world gods."
They need power before they can bear the responsibility of the shards of power or it will crush them. Origin gods can't handle the full responsibility at all. Right now, the orbs have been assimilated into their existence but it has also been annexed by the void universe. It means that the universe is bearing the burden of the black orbs and it also means that their full potential will never be realized as long as it is part of the law matrix. The void universe will not allow the shards of power to disrupt its laws and cause more Chaos in its stability.
They will need to create a law matrix of their own to carry it and it has to be a strong law matrix too or it will collapse. This means that they have to become really strong world gods if they hope to control it fully. Till then, the orbs will continue to do their thing and occasionally interfere with the stuff that they do. Like the Chaos that the dragon clone is causing in his home plane.
It isn't exactly the dragon Clone's fault. An unexpected opportunity appeared for him as a dragon still within its egg and he took it. He can only be partially blamed for how it all turned out. His dragon ancestry is most to blame for what happened. Being unable to control the shards of power come with advantages and disadvantages. They don't have to bear the burden of the shards of power while they enjoy the effects. It is just like how the dragon plane is bearing the burden of what the dragon clone did.
The other legions are making progress in their own ways. The tree father discovered that the restrictive powers of a god's domain have loosened on him. He has lost his divine flame after it was replaced by the black orb. The black orb is not restrictive about the type of faith that can enter it for refinement and processing which means the tree father can have more than one domain.
A god cannot have more than one domain. They have a single domain that defines them and represents their identity. To have more than a domain is to have multiple identities and personalities. It is not done nor is it recommended.
Celestials can absorb and fuse compatible domains. It is how they grow stronger but they can not use another domain or the abilities that belong to it unless it has fused together with their identities. The requirement for compatibility before domains can be fused will eventually frustrate the growth of a Celestial. So a Celestial can not reach the maximum potential it can reach and will remain stuck as a Celestial.
It is believed that the requirement for domain fusion is the reason why Celestials don't have a future. No Celestial is fluid enough to be compatible with enough domains needed for them to reach the threshold necessary for further evolution. Origin gods can grow stronger and evolve into world gods but the future path of Celestials has never been explored. It could either be because the future path doesn't exist or no Celestial has ever reached it.
The tree father has defied the limits of gods by being capable of having more than a single domain. This mutation in the natural order of the world will allow the tree father to grow stronger without killing other Celestials. He can create a new domain by adding more to his identity or creating another identity. It is fortunate considering that there are no other gods in the Zargoth plane apart from the tree father and the unkillable God of fate. There are no other Celestials to kill and absorb in the Zargoth plane.
The tree father is not the tree in the Zargoth plane. That tree is just one of its avatars. It has other avatars in other planes. All these avatars have been limited to the use of the life domain and divine life energy. That is the only domain that the tree father could use. But now the tree father can create avatars with different domains so that the main body can grow.
It is a great ability to become able to use two different domains but it is also dangerous. The tree father still needs to pay attention to the compatibility of domains to plan for the fusion of domains. This will prevent an unfortunate clash of incompatible identities. They have learned that the fact that they can do something doesn't mean that they should. It might not turn out the way they want and it might have unexpected repercussions.
For example, creating an upgrade on Chaos spark that is supposed to make demon dukes and demon lords stronger. That experience taught him to be careful with what he wishes for.
