#eodum

Eodum's main power is controlling the time and its various aspects. But if he wants something spectacular, of bigger scale, he would lose all his power for several days. He can also regulate his size a bit, appearing as small as 160 cm to almost 5 m if he wants to be more intimidating. Yet, his emotional developement is very… stalled. He still acts like a little brat and only recently came into interactions with more people.

It started more or less 2 years ago, when Setia discovered the way to reach Inbetween and met the demi-god for the first time and they came up with a plan, involving, among other things, finishing the rule of the mother who left him behind (Setia is still not fully aware, Eodum is half-sibling of Merah). Main goal: be nothing like her. So instead of being rather fair, but vengeful and sinister, he wants to become benevolent and use his power to mostly reverse any harm done.

He quickly realizes that he cannot control his power well enough for such purposes yet, as he badly disfigures a few trees in the Inbetween. Setia offers himself up for practice, because they both realize, if Eodum actually saw how the damage had happened, he could reverse it with less problems. Honing of Eodums skills quickly escalates - from easy bruising and a prickle to a finger to draw blood, into full-blown torture sessions Setia agrees to suffer through for the sake of future gains. We are talking fractured bones, 3rd degree burns and worse. The man is then healed and promptly sent to bed back in the palace to rest. Never has the world witnessed a stranger dynamic.

Upon Eodum fast forwarding king Garura to his death (the boy doesn't care about political stuff nor death), he is discovered back by Ubisi and Life and the two beings have a huge fight over motherhood, ending in Ubisi sending him off to Merah and Sydney to look after him. As his power is drained by the Garura ordeal and other stuff, he is… grounded in Ireland for around two weeks.

Shocked he will have no slaves like Setia at his disposal to practice, he domesticates a rat from The Silver Arrow and is seen often just exploding the rat into pieces and then reverting it back again with his sheer power, like an instastory boomerang video. The rat gets also a name, which is famously You Bitch Shit (because Eodum finds it hilarius that if you say it quick enough it almost sounds like Ubisi), starts having a nest in his mess of a hair and goes with him everywhere, docile and curious.

Actually, the visit becomes a blessing. That's the first time the demi-god experiences love, especially from Merah, and gets taught the extent of his abilities by Aoibhin, the local druid lady from the woods. And also its limits - he is heartbroken finding a dead hedgehog in the forest which he cannot bring back (he later has the idea to make hedgehogs and rat his holy animals, masssanger between him and people). This and interfering with what other gods did.

Humbled, he gets back to Inbetween and Vermillion only to discover Setia is now forced to become the next King, caring more about Adam than Eodum, but also Eodum's first Temple being erected on the ruins of Ubisi's Temple in Allaine, a small city far from the capital. He makes sure to perform his first public miracle and one night promptly fast forwards the building to complition, much to awe of his soon growing number of believers.
