Half a year later.
Serakhen's Divine Kingdom.
Obsidian stood before the Tower of Order on the central floating island, his massive dragon eyes gazing at the two 'avatars' nearing completion.
One on the left, one on the right; one heavy, one ethereal.
On the left was a breathtakingly colorful giant dragon.
His scales were like solidified divine light of five colors—fiery red, profound blue, vibrant green, ancient bronze, and majestic black—within them flowed and resonated the immense power of time, arcane magic, life, and earth.
This was the avatar Obsidian condensed from the 'Dragon' domain, perfectly fusing the essence of Azeroth's five Aspect Dragons.
On the right, was an ethereal and transcendent divine dragon.
He drew upon Obsidian's past life memories, blending the agile grace of Pandaria's Cloud Serpents, to finally take shape.
His body was long and agile, his dragon horns rose proudly and curved backward, and his entire body was wreathed in clouds, exuding an inherent grace.
This was Obsidian's ultimate imagination of the 'Eastern Dragon,' another supreme interpretation of the 'Dragon' domain.
Obsidian's demeanor was languid, yet his movements were precise and efficient.
His claw tips casually tapped the floating stone platform, emitting a low, rhythmic thrum.
Vast divine power flowed into the two avatars along the vibrating ripples, performing the final sculpting and refinement.
"Almost done."
Obsidian lifted his dragon claw, a wisp of deep, dark golden divine light gathering at his fingertip, like a divine brush bringing creation to life, lightly touching the brows of the two avatars.
Buzz—
In that instant, four dragon eyes lit up simultaneously!
As if souls dormant for eons had suddenly awakened, a boundless life force swept forth.
The first avatar suddenly stretched its limbs, its massive dragon wings unfurling with a roar, stirring the air of the Divine Kingdom.
The five-colored scales shimmered with dazzling, interwoven light, their condensed power causing space itself to tremble slightly.
He opened his eyes, and deep within his pupils, galaxies seemed to be born and die, and meteors streaked by.
"Ekseltus." Obsidian and he spoke in unison, solemnly naming this avatar of power.
On the other side, amidst the swirling clouds, the second avatar silently circled upwards.
Ink-jade scales covered his slender body, each stretch as light and smooth as smoke, untouched by any hint of mortal dust, yet his dragon eyes were as deep as an abyss, seemingly able to perceive the trajectories of all things in the world.
Obsidian bestowed upon him his name from his previous life: "Lin Mo."
Obsidian had no habit of talking to himself; they were already of one mind, making any words superfluous.
The next moment, space warped.
Ekseltus suddenly flapped his wings!
His massive body transformed into a five-colored lightning bolt tearing through space, fiercely rushing towards the Divine Kingdom's dome, instantly disappearing into the passage leading to Storm Peaks.
Jack, like ink dissolving in water, silently sank, passing noiselessly through the tranquil lake at the bottom of the Divine Kingdom, gliding towards ZulDrak.
The Divine Kingdom returned to silence once more.
From now on, the avatars would walk the mortal realm in his stead.
The purpose of this was, firstly, to ensure safety; even if an avatar fell, it would only be a loss of partial divine power and consciousness, without harming the root of the main body.
Secondly, to mislead; what do Ekseltus's misdeeds have to do with me, Obsidian? This would allow for far fewer restrictions in his actions.
Thirdly, it would avoid Azeroth's inherent malice—Obsidian did not intend to be an enemy of Azeroth, at least not for now.
It wasn't that his true god couldn't return, but rather that he actively chose to reduce such occurrences.
No one would like a being that could destroy them at any moment to constantly reside within them.
