“ | Devouring the external world is not the end goal. Even consuming rules, concepts, authorities, and symbols is not the end. Devouring yourself, devouring your father, devouring the god you worship-that is your ultimate fate, the pinnacle of hunger. |

— Lumian Lee on Circle of Inevitability, Chapter 1144 |
Overview[]
The Tail-Devourer Pathway seems to be all about analyzing and processing ingredients to cook different dishes, drinks, and concoctions. They possess enhanced digestive capabilities, can deprive others of their Beyonder powers, and can digest and absorb Beyonder characteristics and Mystical Items for extra power. At High-Sequences, "They" hold authority over Devouring, Convergence, and Hunger, constantly striving to devour everything—even "Themselves"—to achieve the ultimate convergence and the corresponding sense of satiety.[1]
This Pathway is one of the new Pathways introduced in Circle of Inevitability. It exists outside the standard 22 Pathways, but is still classified into Sequence 9 to Sequence 0.[2]
On Earth, the Beyonders of this Pathway do not advance through Potions, but by praying to the Outer Deity Primordial Hunger, who is the Above the Sequence of this Pathway, for a Boon. The corresponding Sefirah is the Primordial Hunger's currently unnamed Sefirah.
This Pathway is the only Pathway under the Primordial Hunger.[1]
Neighboring Pathways[]
Neighboring Pathways to the Tail-Devourer Pathway include, but might not be limited to, the following:
- Some Pathways under the God Almighty:[3]
Based on neighboring Sefirot, other possible neighboring Pathways include:
- Pathways under the Calamity of Destruction (since the Primordial Hunger can accommodate the City of Calamity[3][4]):
