Chapter 930: Phantoms of the Psyche

The chamber of the wellspring shifted, the swirling energies slowing as the shadows before them solidified into more distinct forms. Each figure was dark, but familiar—familiar because they were fragments of themselves, drawn from the deepest recesses of their minds.
