Lith and Solus had no such problem since they had the same energy signature, but for any other mage, it was the only way they had to craft powerful artifacts with the help of one or more colleagues.
It was also how the fake mages of the Kingdom had enchanted the six great Academies and how Inxialot's Adamant sphere had been capable of empowering the golems back in Urgamakka.
The sphere itself was a teaching tool, showing to whoever was smart enough to understand its workings how to properly arrange different pseudo cores and how to align their common runes.
Lith had decided to start off with ten pseudo cores while Solus would add five more, but he soon noticed that they needed a change of plans. The strain from keeping the world energy in the circle and outside the staff already took too much of her focus.
Any more and she would not be capable of participating in the Forgemastering process.
29/11/21 Dear readers, I don't use this space often and I hate bringing bad news but between some health issues, personal problems, and being kicked out of the apartment I rented (last week the landlord decided to not renew the contract and sell it) Supreme Magus goes on a break. I hope to be back soon, but it might take even the entire month of December for me to get back on my feet so please DO NOT RENEW priv tomorrow. I'll update my situation on Discord as soon as something changes. With love, Legion 20
