"'Remnant Chrysalis,' who held sway over April?"
Aaron suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.
He thought of the Fate-Ruling God whose wound had been opened during the War of the Fallen Sun—the [Cocoon]!
Was 'Remnant Chrysalis' connected to [Cocoon]? And why did 'Lady of the Woods' wield part of the 'Chrysalis' pathway? If my guess was right, then [Cocoon] probably hadn't met a good end a thousand years ago...
Hiss... Come to think of it, the [Crimson Creator] really was powerful. Among the Fate-Ruling Gods who ganged up on Them, [Black Sun] had fallen outright, [Cocoon] had been gravely wounded, and the others probably hadn't fared much better...
Besides, how many wars had the Age Controllers fought over the long thousand years of history? How many beings had fallen, suffered grievous wounds, or been devoured?
If I blindly tried to fit beings from a thousand years ago into the Twelve Age Controllers, I'd inevitably get it completely wrong!
Still, once my knowledge of the hidden world was rich enough, I might be able to deduce the Age Controllers' true identities...
For instance, the 'Chrysalis' symbolized life and change, but also had some stubborn, unchanging qualities. Change and constancy... Perhaps back then, [Cocoon]'s unchanging aspect became 'Remnant Chrysalis,' while the changing aspect became 'Lady of the Woods'? Was that why 'Lady of the Woods' kept changing her appearance between the three?
But that couldn't explain the other two elements associated with 'Lady of the Woods'... So something else must have happened that I don't know about.
Aaron silently reminded himself to stay alert, though he was also intrigued.
Researching a thousand years of mystical history and uncovering the origins of the various Age Controllers seemed quite interesting.
"But why might a mysterious case that happened in April be connected
