Escape [3]
It couldn't be overstated how little Damien understood his own power.
He'd been comprehending Existence concept by concept, and his general understanding of it was spectacular. If one asked him to showcase the concepts of Existence themselves, he could show them something wondrous.
However, ironically enough, Damien, who valued freedom so much, was restricted in thought.
He simply could not foster an imagination wide enough to experience the full brevity of Existence.
Of course, Damien never stopped trying. His recent curiosity towards the different paths of life and the ways humans could change was related to his desire to expand his mentality.
His efforts were applaudable, but they just weren't enough. At least in terms of usages of his power in battle, it was impossible for Damien to understand them until he found himself in that precarious situation.
