Gaine was not a good teacher. He had a hands-off approach after giving Saleen a grade-12 Star Gathering Needle. To mages, all knowledge could be forcefully memorized, but it was something else altogether to use that knowledge as one's own skills anytime anywhere.
After Saleen's mental powers entered the needle, he was able to see narrow spaces and a limited number of nebulas. At the core, laid a black hole just like the needle he had with him.
Saleen maneuvered his way dexterously into the black hole. The space within seemed rather thin. It was nonetheless still a grade-12 equipment, and his mental powers were locked tight within that space still. Four large transparent crystallized bodies levitated midair. They had complex, intricate writings etched within as before.
