The ritual had begun, and Asiva could feel her body responding to the ancient process. The air in the room thickened as she mixed her own blood with the finely ground Dragon's root. A sizzling sound filled the chamber, as the blood and Dragon's root reacted, releasing a dense, fragrant mist into the air.
Breathing in deeply, Asiva felt the mist enter her lungs, spreading into her bloodstream. It was a unique sensation, almost as if she could feel the individual particles from the Dragon's root and her blood seeping into every corner of her body, triggering a cascade of reactions within her cells.
She could acutely feel her blood pressure rising, every blood vessel in her body expanding as if trying to accomodate a faster flow of blood, faster than anything the body had ever undergone naturally.
