The influx in energy was too much for the River Whale to handle. The tendrils of blood making up the Caterpillar burst one after another as new tendrils emerged, coiling into its form to reinforce it. The body of the River Whale faintly shuddered every time it happened.
When the energy poured into the River Whale's Brain Crystal, it was swiftly siphoned into its soul that bulged. The bulge soon disappeared as the energy was distributed between all the souls and their respective Heart Crystals.
This way, it avoided suffering from an overload. The two Soul Corneas siphoned the energy at the maximum possible rate, sending it into the blue soul that then poured into his Brain Crystal.
