Elly nodded. "Yes, it's possible, but as you saw, creating a formation takes time. Doing it in combat is like suicide."
"However, in the Shroud, there are species with unique traits that enable them to use runic formations more efficiently during battle."
Liam's interest piqued. "Have you encountered any of those species?"
Elly shook her head, "No, they're among the higher-ranked species."
Motivated, Liam tried to replicate the rune Elly had demonstrated.
His initial attempts were somewhat successful, but the rune would only maintain its form for a short while before dispersing.
Elly observed with an amused chuckle before offering guidance, pointing out areas for improvement.
As they delved deeper into the intricacies of runic formations, time slipped away unnoticed.
Liam pondered. "Could this runic pattern be used to strengthen my bionic hand?"
