And then, it disappeared.
The flood of information.
The flood of power.
The onslaught of energy.
It disappeared as Rui shut down his Realms of power.
RUMBLE…
The world began calming down as Mother Alicia stabilized multiple tectonic plates with her gigantic roots stretching many thousands of kilometers in each direction.
She gazed at Rui with stunned amazement.
Something about him had changed.
'It's his eyes.'
The pitch-black darkness within them bore deeper into reality than they had ever before.
Almost as if he could see things that nobody else could.
His expression was tranquil while his body language was relaxed.
Within the depths of his mind was a tapestry.
The Tapestry of Nature.
A system of thought that allowed him to behold the mind and will of nature.
It allowed him to behold the depth and breadth of nature.
It allowed him to see that he, individualistic and deathly as he was, was still a part of nature nonetheless.
