Darius could not be blamed for his shock, as this was more than just a minor revelation! There were many things to pick out from this statement, namely that there existed special focal points where one could connect to the core of Faust to derive pure energy from the world.
Darius was unsure if such focal points could allow one to automatically connect or needed some form of conduit like the pedestal Marasmus hovered over to channel the energies.
Then, there was also the fact that the First Resurrection Stone could actually swallow energy from the core of Faust! Even if the energy passing through the leylines would be diluted, that was still intense!
His face changed further when he thought of the implications, since it was very likely that Marasmus had been floating there for nearly all of his existence. 8 millennia of constant absorption… just what kind of power had the stone accumulated?
