Taming Mana Again

While the elevator was bringing David back down, Alexander was standing in his living room, looking at his hand. He wasn't looking at the surface, but more at what was happening inside it.

He could feel something flowing inside his body that hadn't been there previously. And when he focused on it, he could sense the small particles again.

This time they were clearer, and he noticed there were also some floating around him in the living room. He took a few minutes to observe their movements.

He could tell this time what they were, like something had unlocked in his mind. He tried controlling it with his mind as he did inside New Eden, but nothing happened.

The mana wasn't reacting to his silent orders, as it did in New Eden, and he guessed that was pretty normal. After all, this was a novelty to him in this world.
