Almond opened the first page of the book and saw a circle with eccentric patterns that formed from a mix of curvy designs and edgy lines, ultimately forming a strange shifting illusion.
For one instant, he would see a whirlpool circulating with bending lines inside from those patterns, and in another instant, he would see an array of fangs.
Below this strange drawing were words that Almond quickly finished reading.
'So I have to derive an understanding of sequences from this drawing to start the first stage of this Prana Art.'
The first stage was called the Maw of Awakening Embers and the book had five stages, corresponding to the five ranks Mortal - High Mortal - Immortal - Immortal King - Immortal Emperor.
Without further ado, Almond closed his eyes and brought out his consciousness before diving in, observing, and trying to comprehend the drawing.
