However, all of these sacrifices were not in vain. Eos and Rowan had reached a soft peak in their techniques and abilities. While it was true that they were always growing stronger and smarter, that rate of growth depended a lot on the external factors around them.
One of the greatest reasons it was hard for Eos to reach the level of Primordials was that it was hard for him to find true external pressure that could temper him.
The Ancient Primordials were not good candidates because, apart from their endless strength and malevolence, they had nothing new to teach Eos.
Their strength only came from their bloodline and the vast amount of Origin Force inside their bodies, and they wielded this strength like a brute. Still, Eos knew that the Ancient Primordials were never given a chance to entirely master their powers.
