Walker and Su moved closer to see what he was doing. Next to the elf was a pile of broken crystals that looked like they had been the blades grafted on to the metal body of the sword. Walker was very interested to see the runes being carved.
The needle that was being used to carve incredibly small runes on the metal of the sword was glowing with the elf's mana. The patterns being carved on it were a mix of earth and fire runes that Walker was familiar with after seeing the fabrics and the training area.
Walker was sensing the mana starting to head toward the sword and become absorbed by the crystal grafted on to the metal body. The elf was getting more energized feeling this but Walker could see a problem forming. "You are letting it absorb the elemental mana too fast. That's why it keeps cracking like those."
