The air around me trembled slightly as Essence burst through my channels, flowing straight into my core like a river rushing toward a dam. I could feel the pull—it was hungry, drawing in Essence in huge amounts.
My body responded instantly. Every part of me vibrated with the frequency of the core. My muscles tensed, then relaxed as they adjusted. I could feel my bones shifting subtly, strengthening. The channels inside me widened again, just a bit, making more room for the flow.
It wasn't painful, but it was intense, like being rewired from the inside out.
The feeling lasted only a few more seconds before it faded. I let out a deep breath and opened my talent panel to check the changes.
