This time, Sylas felt an odd emotion rushing through him.

That was right, it was an emotion. A sense of superiority, as though he was looking down on the world from above. It felt like a cool-pack was pressed against the folds of his brain, filling it with a chilling but soothing liquid. His mind calmed, and all his worries seemed to be stripped from him.

The feeling lasted for a long while until it faded. No, it didn't fade. Instead, it felt like he had… gotten used to it? It was a permanent state? His mind just felt so… fresh and clear.

That was when it hit Sylas.

Passive.

In a video game context, "passive" had always meant that it was an ability that was always on. It was an ability that he shouldn't have to "activate" like he had been trying to do previously.
