The Eye of Time was not idle all these while, for even as it walked towards Rowan, the chanting it had been making since the beginning of this encounter had never ended, and a mile from Rowan, its spell was completed, and then it was revealed why it took so much time and risk its existence in this realm to summon this spell.
"This move has a fraction of its power, but boy, I have slaughtered Primordial Beasts with it."
The body of the Third Prince began to crack as if it could not contain the massive power that he had just summoned. This revealed to Rowan the situation of all the countless mortals and Ascendant in the Time Blight. They had all been shrunken and their bodies twisted into horrifying facsimiles of gears and cogs, as the Eye of Time recreated a fraction of its previous powers with the flesh of mortals and Ascendants.
