Eos’ Perspective.
“There are no eternal enemies, and no eternal friends only permanent interests” - Eos the Everlasting
Nova’s Interests:
* Finding Azalea
* Root Interest:
* Security of the Goddess’ Rule.
* Carrying out the lifestyle that the Goddess intended
* Believing that this style of life under the Goddess is better than without
* Root Why?:
* Lived a life without the ruling of the Goddess and suffered, saw how blessed his loved ones were after they lived in a Dimension which was under the Goddess’ care.
A small summary on the current information garnered. I left Azalea inside the tub, I needed to do work. I left the door, passing through it like it doesn’t even exist. I felt energy pulsing through my hands, Azalea’s energy levels were around 15% even if she trained it's capacity from birth. Even the most efficient teleportation spells took away 1/3rd of her energy. She gets 7% of energy per hour by existing, or 740 Eu. Eos Units, the term I made to measure energy outputs.
My Interests:
* Get us out of here
* Make sure that Azalea is safe.
* Root Interests:
* Live a life where I can watch Azalea grow up.
* Live a peaceful life like my retirement
* Root Why?:
* Because I never did it in my previous life, and I don’t want to repeat that same mistake here.
* Redemption for my faults and mistakes as a Father

Well the first order of action is to gain an understanding of my surroundings. I walked out into the hall where busy people were walking down.
Suggest, a small spell which costs 10 Eu. “Where can I find the superiors?”
Read Minds, a small spell which costs 37 Eu. For a brief moment I can see what they’re thinking.
Elevator, Up, 4 stories, big gigantic doors. Oh. He’s also feisty and you need to get through his secretary to get in.
Suggest, 10 Eu, “What does this place’s layout look like?” I acasted it on another person.
Read Mind 37 Eu. I see, we’re in another dimension. Precisely speaking, we’re in an upside down castle in Nova’s personal dimension which doubles as his workspace.
No wonder I couldn’t get out of here, we weren’t even in the same dimension. You would need to go through one of Eos' designated gateways to get out, or have his personal permission. The fabric of space-time itself isn’t that dense, it's easily broken through in this universe, but the geometry of this space seems to be melded and welded together with other dimensions.
A single strand of spider silk isn’t tough to break, but a whole net makes it impossible for a bug to fly out.
W-what’s this? I saw a small letter appear in front of me. It opened itself up in front of me and it said,
“Hey Eos! That room feeds off your fears and turns them into a reality”
The little envelope folded itself up until it became a vertex with no magnitude. I let go of the letter, the letter also folded itself until it became a point with no magnitude.
Thank you Skylight. That explains why he vomited. A stab to the liver doesn’t make you vomit, but I taught her that a punch to the liver that shakes the ribs will make your opponent vomit. She must’ve gotten the two pieces of information wrong, but that explains a lot, and it also explains the battlefield. I whispered, The first revealed information is Goddess Avelynn is a Bishop on a Chess Board.
That...explains why we saw that scene. The dreaded Slaughter of Alteria, one of my nightmares, an event I don’t want to talk about.
Beware of the black swan, the unknown piece of information. I’ve negotiated in my past life multiple times, it’s almost second nature now. I braced myself and went back into the private bathroom where Azalea laid unconscious.
A little transparent moth was stuck in the ceiling of the room. Ah, here comes the prey. 217 Eu for creating a net that caught the first thing that touched it and held it in place. I wasn’t...expecting a paper moth but whatever it’ll work. I noticed that the inscriptions on the paper moth looked similar to the robin we saw at the table, it seemed to stem from the same magical technology that created the talking Robin.
I can’t control what happens next, but I’m ready.
