The goal was to make Providence the Will of his territory. A sort of being, or even entity, that would subtly control the direction of anyone's evolution.
Not only that. The plan was also to make her a kind of Records.
It was something that would have sounded difficult, but it was nothing of the sort with Noah's present level of control.
He already had a territory under his rule, one where both the folks living inside and the territory itself were bound to him.
So what he did was simply take the core of his limited ruling space, gather all the pieces of existence from his bound, then place Providence in the middle, linking everything together through her.
The process to make all of this work took time, and in the meantime the wives were already back in the Hall of Fog.
Red was with them, her eyes as red as her name. They had always been red. But this time, the red carried a touch of forlornness, of grief and loss.
Nothing of her usual grinning, ecstatic face remained.
Red looked subdued, something that made all of them unfortable.
Noah was facing away from them, yet that didn't stop him from seeing their faces and expressions as clearly as the sun at midday.
Already, he was wondering how he would explain to Red the matter of soul erasure. That conversation filled him with dread to the core. 'Later!' He berated himself, shook his head, then focused back on finishing the process.
It was harder to do than he had thought. In spite of that, he did it.
As the ruler, Noah needed to willingly give away a certain level of authority and power to Providence for her to function as he intended.
He didn't hesitate even once, giving everything necessary.
As he reached the finishing touches, the Prince felt a part of Providence's existence and self slowly seep into the core of his territory.
Then she expanded - like fog filling a room - covering the entire Dominion from top to bottom, from left to right.
An instant later,
DING!
A chime echoed inside Noah's head alone, yet the Dominion itself vibrated. 'Elysiari. Noah's answer was swift.
The name would be an homage to their past selves, and to those still living in fear back in the universe.
