After the first successful adjustment, the formation arrays were allowed to gather energy again while the affected regions settled.
The Collegium checked the crust, Tidewatch followed the altered currents, and the Lunarians made certain the redirected leylines had accepted their temporary paths before Lucien authorized another change.
