Jash's move demonstrated his intense control over the mana, but that wasn't something he actually liked; it was a testament to his own hardship.
Yet he remained without choice. He was forced to manipulate the water elemental mana and form an innate connection to it, in order to awaken the element and exit this dreaded place.
A thin thread-like structure extended from his palm as he deliberately waited for it to take shape.
It was too thin, too fragile, as if it would break with the slightest tug of even wind.
The shimmering hues of different shades of blue covered it whole, as the hues wavered between dark and light blues, indicating its own duality.
It could become the strongest connection or the weakest—it all depended upon Jash, who chose to wield it and attempted connecting to it.
His feat of controlling elemental mana as pure mana was unmatched and rarely achievable, yet he wasn't satisfied.
