Surprisingly, an extremely small amount of mana was lost. Savine expected at least 2-4% of her total mana to be lost, but what? She barely lost 1%? It felt like it didn't even reach that.
This was both good and bad news. The good news was that her mana was much larger than she first anticipated. But because of that, it was going to take a lot longer than she anticipated to purify her mana entirely.
And it wasn't just a progress bar that went from 1 to 100. During the process, naturally, some of the purified mana would revert. So although the final number was 100, the effort needed was about 200.
By that logic, the time needed for Savine to completely tame her own mana was 200 days. If she took a bit of risk and did the process twice every day, 100 days. Maybe even more. Definitely more. It wasn't like her mana was going to stop increasing.
