Out of everyone touched by corruption, apart from Leon only two had ever adapted to it, two lesser spawns shaped under circumstances so strange they barely counted as precedent.
The first was Blessing.
Her creation had been a complete accident, born when Leon's transformation into a Void Spawn collided with her own evolution into a Cluster Guardian.
Eden had steadied the process, but the result was something unpredictable: a being molded by corruption while the Hallow still smothered Pandora.
The second was Eleanor.
The time she had been bound to the Demon Lord: a being formed from refined corruption, had left her soul scarred and strangely receptive.
Leon had only needed to nudge her, guiding that dormant affinity with his corruption until she crossed the threshold and became something new.
Two corrupt beings, shaped long before the Hallow was destroyed.
