Ren began to glow, a jade and golden light that emanated from his center and extended toward his extremities.
He sighed deeply, preparing for what he knew would be the most intense experience of his life, and took the King's hand.
His consciousness immediately connected with his fungus's help. Irregular lines of jade and golden light thickened around his arms, creating patterns that looked like living roots made of pure energy.
The connection was both beautiful and terrifying.
Zhao, designated to bring the doubles carrying fragments of draconic power, began bringing them toward Ren one by one with his silent flight.
When Ren touched the first one, power flowed through him toward Dragarion in a current that made both of them illuminate.
The sensation was like channeling lightning, raw force that demanded perfect control to avoid being destroyed..
The first fragment made the King glow intensely and spit some blood, but he smiled through the pain.
