'The user has properly ditated. The skill arcane ditation has been taken from the grand mage system. The user has learned the skill Arcane ditation'
'Arcane ditation- passive
During a deep ditation, the user is able to disconnect their body and mind to look within themselves. They are able to search for the connections and affinities that they have to shape their minds and bodies better to accumulate and use said connections and affinities. If the user is damaged due to magical backlash or severe damage caused by their use of mana this skill can assist them in rebuilding their body using the natural mana and stored energy within their body. Ti varies depending on affinities, user ntality, and mana in the surrounding area. The user can use mana to enhance their body to a degree based on multiple factors such as; affinity, bloodlines, training, current possessions, current condition,...'
Walker found that the arcane ditation skill ca with a myriad of information. This alone gave him many things to think about and work toward. However, what he focused on was the fact that this skill could allow him to slowly strengthen his body with surrounding elental mana. That ant that he could fix his weakness from abusing mana while also enhancing the bonds with those he cared about.
His body was normal for a human when it ca to the adventuring he had done. Walker was not overly muscular but was not the sa as his well built father who had gone through rigorous training with the guards since he unlocked his system at a young age. His mother was even fairly muscular due to the kitchen work she had done. Lifting pounds of ingredients every day was nothing to laugh at.
What really struck Walker was that his body had already obviously started to change. He could make out the parts of his body that had begun to express affinity for elental manas along with the natural mana that he was able to manipulate now. Unfortunately, he could see small parts around his hands and feet where mana had rushed out while using skills causing his body to lose mana circulation.
This new view of himself brought so stress but enlightennt. Being able to rebuild his body and properly heal a wound that he could not see or even understand before was spectacular. There had been healers that ntioned the flow of mana in a person's body but Walker had never realized that he had been missing their true aning. They had spoken of how mana moved and ca to be within a person. He had not realized at the ti that they were not speaking of their mana being able to flow and heal soone. Therefore, Walker ca to the conclusion that so healers must have the skills to see how wounds perated a body and an alternate skill that might show damage involving mana flow. Yet this skill must be very rare since it wasn't spoken about often. Most likely this skill rarely had a chance to manifest in basic churches and cathedrals since people only had physical injuries.
Thoughts of Su and Midnight having resistances to elental manas entered Walker's mind. He could clearly see the strong bond with Midnight and knew what it ant. But he could also see that there was more to it. The bond went further than just him and small threads of mana left him to leave the area completely. His theory was that they connected to Midnight and eventually to Su. If Walker allowed the bond to mingle with his body over long periods of ti he might gain better resistances and strengths like Su and Midnight. But what if he focused on it and used the natural mana to nurture it? What if he used this new arcane ditation skill to assist his healing? Would he be fully human? No, he had already accepted this and only cared that he would be able to still help others and remain with his family.
The room reacted to Walker's will stabilizing. As soon as he had committed to using the mana to heal himself in this way and enhance the strength of his bonds, the elental mana cald before rotating around him. The reaction was the exact sa as inside the eternal orb which ford natural mana doing the sa action. Thus, when he saw that the eternal orb was at the center, Walker felt it was only right.
Fleur stirred for the first ti after Walker had fallen in to this ditation. She could sense the desire Walker had and how he would do it. As a high nature spirit, she was on the path to becoming a world spirit. She wanted to push high, and learn to speak the way Zephyr did as a grand spirit. Fleur wanted to reach higher and understand what it ant to be what she was. The feelings of the elental spirits that had fused to create her were now solidified within her, the awe that they had when Walker asked them to remain with him was even more powerful. Her reaction was simple, guide the mana to form together faster and use it to help Walker while strengthening herself.
Unknown to Walker and Fleur, their actions were affecting the mage tower even more. The area that it was able to affect with its runes was growing slightly due to the library floor being put back in to place. The entire city would gain benefits. However, Midnight also felt everything. She felt the very core of her being tremble as Walker began to feed their bond more mana. She could feel the desire to grow and beco soone those would look up to. It perfectly lined up with the pride and strength Midnight saw herself having as a dragon. Her flight training seed unimportant, instead, she started to rush toward the mage tower, driven by determination.
