Geth continued to dive into the earth. Many minutes had passed since he'd left the stone room far behind him.
Even so, the Mana in his surroundings was still being pulled back towards the ever-strengthening vortex.
He was surprised at how long he'd been holding his breath. Albus informed him that a mixture of his Wisdom and Defense Attributes made it possible.
Geth was using much less Mana now that he was swimming through mud rather than the liquified stone above. It was to a point where his recovery was greater than his expenditure.
'It feels like the pressure has stopped...'
Geth stopped pulling himself downward and focused on the surrounding Mana and felt that it had gone stagnant rather than pulling upward.
There was something off. He could feel that something was happening above him.
'What is it..?'
Geth spread his senses as far as he could before realizing what was going on.
'Dive!'
