Clay was standing in front of Susan as the latter meditated. She was covered in sweat due to their swordsmanship training. It was a bit uncomfortable to concentrate in that state but nothing was helping it. She needed to meditate as long as she finished doing exercises, so she would stay conscious about her body, her heartbeat, her breathing... It was a technique to help her focus.
The archer looked amazed as blue embers began to emerge from the center of her body, spreading gently across her trunk. At first, it was a thin layer of blue fire, then it began to get intenser every second. At some point, Clay couldn't even see her body anymore.
The most curious thing about those flames was that they didn't produce light at all. Rather, it seemed like the environment got darker just because of its presence. Clay didn't know how to define the existence of such power. He only knew that it was very, very strange; even stranger than "Chaos" or "Willpower".
