My heartbeat shook at these words from the Sovereign, and I nodded, but did not say a word, as a part of me truly wanted to know how deep the rabbit hole went.

He did not move for a moment, then he lifted one hand, and the darkness of the whole nave drew in toward it, and where it gathered, it thinned, becoming clear like water.
This transformation of darkness was shocking, as I could not imagine how many profundities I was witnessing in such an easy act. I believe that with Lightning Edict, I may be able to replicate such a thing, but I was just borrowing the powers of the spell, and I did not fully understand all the mechanisms that guided its powers.
