Kaiden glanced around the pale expanse again, then back toward where he felt the System's presence hovering.
"So," he asked, voice calmer now, fatigue dulled into something manageable, "When will this strange limbo-like state end?"
There was a brief pause.
[The Successor has already been provided with the means.]
Kaiden blinked. "I have?"
[Yes.]
Something shifted at the edge of his awareness.
A spell.
[Temporary Spell Acquired: End]
Kaiden stared at the empty glow ahead of him, then huffed out a quiet breath.
[The spell will terminate the current state and return the Successor to the point immediately following the activation of Begin.]
Understanding settled in.
"Alright. [End]."
The pale light shattered inward like glass pulled into a singular point. Sensation crashed back all at once: weight, gravity, warmth, the familiar hum of mana in the air. Kaiden sucked in a sharp breath as the world snapped into focus.
Solid ground beneath him.
Candles.
The circle.
