Stele [1]

'Existence?'

Damien focused most of his attention on Alexander's body when he found it.

His main body was moving with the bare minimum intelligence, using mainly its instincts to dodge and weave away from the Gods that were attacking him.

Naturally, if they challenged him in close combat, the situation would be different, but that was exactly the situation Damien was working hard to avoid.

He didn't just stay near the boundary stele.

The two Straea Gods realized their distanced attacks wouldn't hit pretty early. Once they had him cornered, the first thing they tried to do was get in close and stop him from teleporting.

However, Damien moved behind them and led the chase in a separate direction.

He needed them to keep their attention completely focused on him.

Alexander was already working through the boundary stele's mechanics to find a way past it, so his job was now to stop the two from realizing Alexander's presence.
