"Damien Void, you were an anomaly."
The Saint Emperor skipped countless hundreds of millions of years of his story and entered the current era.
"I first became aware of your existence when the Fifth Primal Sovereign died and watched you from then. Our meeting on Calypto was entirely calculated by me, because I could no longer watch. I wanted to interact with you."
Those words were scarier than he made them out to be. A man who had been watching him for several years, a man who could so perfectly understand the flow of the universe that he set up the entire invasion of Eden as a stage to meet Damien.
That was the man the Saint Emperor was.
"You exceeded all my expectations. When I finally saw you, I could not believe my eyes. You truly held that power I'd been powerlessly chasing for eons. You were someone blessed beyond belief, a man who was destined for greatness."
