Lucavion stood before the pulsating platform, his eyes narrowing as he took in the massive chamber. The energy from the Minor Fundamental Vein thrummed through the air, thick and tangible, amplifying the mana within the room. He could feel the power radiating from the core of the chamber, like a vast ocean waiting to be tapped into. His heart pounded in his chest, not from anxiety, but from the anticipation of what was to come.
"It's time," he whispered to himself, his breath steady despite the immensity of the moment.
He stepped closer to the platform, the glow of the energy casting a pale light on his features. Vitaliara perched by his side, her feline eyes never leaving him. Though her awe had faded into quiet composure, Lucavion could still sense her heightened awareness of the situation. This was a critical moment—one that would determine his future path.
