Aura

After learning a god level technique Daedalus realised that his energy reserves had been severely depleted. Daedalus felt that if he was going to use the technique any more he would have to be stronger. So after making his decision Daedalus said good night to the others and prepared to cultivate.

As he was breaking through a new stage Daedalus decided that it would be best he took his time rather than rushing through just as fast as his foundation would allow. It didn't take Daedalus long to enter a meditative state as he reviewed the cultivation method. The stage is called Mortal Aura and he would need to create an aura around himself that is centered around his spiritual tethers.

He would need to form twelve auras around him to reach the peak of the Mortal Aura stage. As he began to slowly form his first aura Daedalus noticed that the elements where trying to infuse themselves into the aura. Daedalus eyes lit up for a moment before blocking out all elements other than fire.

Suddenly his previously transparent aura sprung into an inferno as the fire essence poured into his spiritual tether before being sent outwards as his aura. Slowly his aura became more solid, yet also ethereal in nature. Eventually his aura was at the peak of what it could be as it became a near embodiment of fire.

With this new knowledge Daedalus decided that he would infuse each spiritual tether with an element. And so began a battle to create an aura for every element each step harder than the last.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

A few months had passed since Daedalus had entered cultivation and his auras where almost complete. Time was by far the hardest as it was difficult to grasp the essence of time, the same went for space however it was still far easier than time.

Now he had ten auras, Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Metal, Wood, Space and Time and Yin and Yang. But Daedalus was stuck he had two auras left unformed but he couldn't decide whether he should add all of the elements into the two or something else. He just didn't know what to do.

Standing up for the first time in months Daedalus stretched causing his bones to pop in a satisfying way. Leaving the room Daedalus made his way into the garden where he picked an apple before walking towards the clearing they had been before Daedalus went to cultivate.

Unsurprisingly to Daedalus all three where there, although now it seemed that Ceridwen was destroying the two at chess. Hearing his foot steps the three turned and said "About time."

Danforth then asked "So how did it go?"

Daedalus smiled and said "Well I found out something interesting. You can infuse elements into your auras. I now have ten different auras with ten different elements. I just can't figure out what to do for the other two."

Danforth smiled and said "Well that can wait, how about we go for a spar, spear and axe this time, okay?"

Daedalus nodded before suddenly stopping and smiling wryly and saying "I could probably make a spear and sword aura, couldn't I?"
