This time the memory was different – hazy and disjointed, not to mention full of pain and suffering.
And yet Calen knew exactly what it depicted; it was the ascension, a process that seemed to be remarkably similar to the ritual he went through when he became a spirit.
The most notable difference was the fact that instead of one person, the ascension was conducted on two people simultaneously – and judging by the snippets he got it could accommodate as many people as needed.
In general everything about it was grander an bigger, but that wasn't surprising since the ceremony turned you into a god.
Calen also noted that the memory was noticeably shorter than those before, and he even managed to get some regular sleep in.
As a result he woke up unusually early, almost an hour before sunrise – he assumed no one was up yet, so he quietly left the temple to train and stretch a bit before the big fight.
