Skyler sat cross-legged beneath the vast, inky sky. His eyes were closed in focus. The faint crackle of lightning, emanating from the orb floating before him, filled the air around him with a subtle, electric hum.
He was trying to break through.
To become a 10-star Light.
And unlock his lightning element.
He had somewhat already figured out a consistent pattern for unlocking his locked element and gaining affinity with another. It occurred whenever his potential increased, or when he'd successfully reached the end of a tier in any of his existing elements.
His space element had already reached 6-star, but his lightning affinity was still locked. It was clear that to unlock it, Skyler needed to reach the end of his current potential.
Therefore, he was doing just that.
A faint wisp of dark Evol swirled around his body as he concentrated on his darkness elemental crystal, which trembled slightly.
