"What the…" Eira mumbled in shock when she realized that previously powerful looking armor had now compressed itself into a single arm guard.
Meanwhile, Erik looked smugly at her shock. Even Elora fought her exhaustion to chuckle at Eira's expression.
"Wait a second," Eira frowned as confusion filled her gaze. "Didn't you say that making the armor fluid like that would weaken it? And that's why you went with the two-forms reshaping runes or whatever it was?"
"This and that are two different things," Erik shrugged, before looking thoughtful as he considered how best to explain this. "Currently, the armor is being compressed by a sigil, which isn't so much affecting the armor it self, as it is affecting the space around it, thus leaving the armor unchanged. This method is energy costly and not very versatile, as it can only compress something into a smaller form."
