Gwen's fingers traced the holographic interface, her breaths steadying as she made deliberate selections on her status screen. With a resolute nod, she allocated 5 unspent stat points into Strength and mirrored the decision with an equal allocation into Agility. The screen shimmered, acknowledging the adjustments with a soft glow.

Immediately, a tingling sensation coursed through her body, a subtle precursor to the impending changes within her. Her muscles tensed involuntarily, a response to the impending surge of power that awaited her. Yet, she stood firm, preparing herself for what was to come.

It wasn't pain per se, but a stirring disruption that rippled through her being, an unsettling shift that played havoc with her senses. Gwen gritted her teeth, determined not to succumb to the disconcerting sensations surging through her body.
