And hold out Vriski did. The promise of this being his last day of 'experimenting' had the pup put his all and more into it.
And if he hadn't, Eldrian would never have been able to analyze what was happening. After casting high-cost, low-efficiency AOE spells for hours and hours, finally, Eldrian could see it.
Or rather, finally, the mana Vriski used became completely spent.
His internal stores refused to bend to his command, his regeneration failing to make up the difference, and the area around them had barely any 'active' mana left. Only mana drained of all its energy and on the verge of disappearing.
Vriski's evolution, Eldrian summarized:
- Store vasts of mana, surpassing his own mana soul.
- Incredible regeneration of the energy of spent mana. Allowing the re-activation of mana without the normal regeneration cycle mana goes into.
- Massive draw of mana towards himself.
