 * Ascalon manipulates sub-atmoic forces. Apollo just used Ascalon to re-arrange his own atoms into the iron surrounding him.
 * He wanted extra heat because, at numerous points in the series, heat is said to be equivalent to power according to Pyronites. Not only was that explicitly stated (I believe by Apollo at one point) but the Pyronite soldiers even use the term 'ember' as an insult, i.e. referring to someone as weak due to lack of heat.
 * As for why Apollo wants more power, he's just power hungry. That's why he conquered Pyros at the first chance he got, that's why (granted this isn't explained or referred to in-series) he went to war with Piscciss, and that's why he came to Earth to try and become a god.
 * Eon kinda did indirectly result in Apollo getting Ascalon. Apollo meant 'given' in a more metaphoric way.
 * I never really thought of his last state as its own 'form', since it's just the ironclad form (that's the official name btw) but with a lot less iron content.
