The Greed of Erohim

Rowan was familiar with the sensation of Ascension, as he did not know of anyone who could claim to be able to ascend their State of Change or Techniques as quickly as he could. Nevertheless, he still treasured these moments.

He observed the Berserker Skill Tree inside his Mental Space, as it shook and began to unfold, as the branches on it flourished in an expansive pattern, outside his body, a phantom of a bleeding tree hundreds of feet tall appeared behind him.

At the root of the tree were slight bumps that a closer look would reveal to be skulls, hundreds of them crowded together, and the blood pouring down the trees flowed into their gaping eye sockets.

The burst of information that this Ascension brought him was considerable, and it encompassed many new and varied subjects that surprised Rowan in it scope, when it came together, Rowan gained a new understanding about what the Berserker Aspect was, and the knowledge floored him.
