Riven flipped yet another page, curiosity getting the better of him as he continued to read without pause or boredom. Allie and Jose would have loved this kind of stuff, and he couldn’t help but wonder what they were going through right now. His mind began to wander, and worry set in about whether or not they were okay. They needed to survive their own trials in order to be reunited with him, according to the system’s early ssage when he’d first split off, but he had no way of telling whether or not their trials were just as ridiculous as his own or if they were having an easier ti.
No, he couldn’t think about that. Back to the present, and he put his nose to the grindstone for learning. The prologue for the text had indeed been helpful, but there were still many questions concerning the actual spell he needed to learn rather than just the backbone fundantals.
The spell Wretched Snare had a vision that he could produce easily enough just by the way the spell was drawn out in the book. Pictures of a black, sticky, needle-laced net of Unholy magic were drawn on the parchnt rather well. However, the book also described how he needed to encompass the thought of burning, the thought of being sticky, the thought of ensnaring an enemy into the vision rather than just what one physically saw. Vision included not only sight, but also purpose and aning—which was sothing Riven hadn’t necessarily anticipated upon the initial description in the fundantals section.
The channeling of his mana wasn’t too hard to do, and that might have been due to the fact that he’d already gained the Unholy pillar via the blessing he’d received in the maze. Blessing of the Crow had imbued him with the pillar in a vision of what Riven now knew without a shadow of a doubt was the inherent changing of his soul. He’d inherently felt it might be that, but it’d just been guesses made upon introspection until now. What he hadn’t known was that the pillar, that bustling orb of green, crimson, and black lights that had attached itself to the white core of his center self, was actually a type of converter. One that would convert his body’s pure energy into mana that he could then use for the spell he was trying to learn.
of this branch of magic, but this will obviously be more mana-expensive than using the environnt around you, such as using the fallen soldiers on a battlefield for a highly reduced mana cost.
But utilizing the environntal factors is a long ti coming and will take a lot of practice. Probably years or even decades, especially if you’re a beginner. In the anti, rotate the mana and sharpen the mana’s vessel in your vision for eviscerating your enemies.
