This interaction between Rowan and the unknown presence was not hidden from the World Stele, and it was never meant to be. Rowan had hidden this child for too long and at the end of everything, he would loathe it if his brilliance faded in the dark, even though Rowan would never forget him, he still wanted reality to witness his glory. The World Stele did not welcome this new presence and the entire space that it controlled rippled with its consciousness, its voice bubbled through reality carrying its fury,
"Who hides from my gaze?"
"I do not hide, I have been here all along, but you always forget my presence. I guess I did a very good job of infiltrating your cursed world..."
In the sky, above the womb of Thenos, a green comet appeared, trailing a long tail that seemed to stretch to infinity, its appearance appeared incredibly distant yet extremely close at the same time, it seemed to have always been in the sky but its presence had been ignored by everyone, but only when it wanted was it revealed to their senses.
"Whatever you are planning, Rowan, it is not going to work."
"If that is the case," Rowan laughed, "Then why do I hear fear in your voice? My children, are they not magnificent?"
A part of the sky had become colored green as the comet descended closer, shocking all of existence, even Thenos stopped his endless barrage of attacks and focused on this descending piece of heaven. Then this foul unborn titan made a weird cry, almost sounding like laughter but that was the closest descriptor that Rowan could give it, and he began to struggle out of his womb.
Rowan felt a wave of power erupt from the World Stele, crossing space and it slammed into the comet, with a terrible crash, it exploded like a supernova, revealing there was someone in the center of it, Berrion, The Undying, whose roar of challenge and defiance echoed across eternity.
The crash that happened next was so powerful, that even Rowan was deafened by it. The World Stele despite its belittling of Rowan had long come to understand that he was an extremely dangerous opponent and he was not someone you could allow time to finish his plans.
Every advantage that one had over him must be acted upon with great discretion or failure would be the only option since Rowan seemed to have the uncanny ability to drag order out of chaos.
Not wishing to find out the surprise that Rowan had in store for it, the World Stele had simply sacrificed a small part of itself, and the terrible crash of before was a result of it destroying that part as fuel to multiply its dealing force.
Like Primordials, Singularities could not use any minor energy to fuel their powers, but they did not use Primordial Essence, instead they were fueled by Destiny. Not just any Destiny, that Destiny must be from a Breaker!
Across existence, that word meant many things to different people, but only a few knew that in all of existence, the real meaning of Breakers was those special few whose destinies could hold a Singularity.
Without a hale host who could have provided the World Stele with energy after the endless eons, even this powerful Singularity was running dry of its essence, and this led to it bursting out with everything it had to ensure that everything followed its plans.
This power slammed against Berrion with a force that could change creation, and he began to slow. The Undying burst out with all of its potential, revealing that he was an eighth-dimensional being and one whose powers seemed to perfectly counter those of the World Stele, but the Singularity had seemingly gone insane and was willing to sacrifice half of its life if it would ensure that its enemy fell.
Frightening shock waves erupted from around Berrion's body as the strain of fighting against a crazed Singularity broke even his extreme strength and one of his foxtails exploded, granting him a passage through the sealing force, but not for long, the power against him was unending, and so he continued destroying his fox tails, pushing himself closer to the ground and leaving a trail of gore behind that stretched for millions of miles.
