[quote=Krein] After Nevea was done forming her part of the structure, Seth stepped up to the table and reached out to it. Several inches away from it, he could already feel their chill. Touching it almost made him shiver, but thanks to the heat of the cabin he was able to keep from doing so. A small spark of crimson energy escaped his fingers and crept into the ice, increasing its mass and size slightly as it spread and solidified into its crystal form. The ice, now a mixture of ice and crystal, acquired a more jagged appearance as Seth mentally guided the crystals to grow and connect with the rest of the structure, forming the rest of the prototype model as he saw it."It should be able to support the rotation mechanism now and will change accordingly to what we choose it to be. Also..."Seth stepped several feet back, grabbed a heavy piece of scrap metal from the floor, and threw it at the ice and crystal structure. As it flew through the air, a jagged portion of the crystals released a small beam of magic energy, deteriorating the metal. Seth smiled."This along with your ice magic should provide an incredibly apt defense." [/quote] Nevea watched and waited as Seth examined the structure and then began his work. For a moment, she thought she saw him almost shiver. That was understandable, even though she hadn't even applied the chilling effect yet. Right now it was just her regular ice... Which just happened to be cold enough to cool the room several inches from origin. She certainly wouldn't apply the effect right now, in this cabin. That would be far too cold in a confined space (for everyone except her, that was). As Seth began to feed his magic into the construct, Nevea cast her awareness to the ice in order to understand, literally firsthand, what was happening. She could feel the construct's innate ice magic growing stronger, entwined with Seth's. The area around the table would noticeably drop in temperature, although only just. She removed her awareness as Seth began to speak, and nodded when he confirmed that it would work. She then watched as the metal was deteriorated, and then she momentarily applied the chilling effect. The metal lost quite a bit of velocity and it dropped harmlessly before it hit the construct. She removed the effect as quickly as it had came. "Hopefully none of you were bothered by that sudden chill," she said, as when she had activated the chilling effect, the temperature had dropped and then rose for a split-second, likely causing chills to run down the backs of most of those sitting at the table. "That was just my activating the effect to slow the metal." She chuckled. "Now, there's a little something about my ice that's very useful: I can cast my awareness onto it from a good distance away, so that I can feel its intactness, or its magic levels, or many other things. Since your crystal and my ice are fused, I do believe you should be able to do that. When you don't have your awareness on it, it'll feel like a barely noticeable... How should I say this... Area of your mind. It's really useful for checking on the constructs and adjusting them from a distance, so you won't need to take the time to walk all the way to them. "It might be a bit hard to figure out which... Areas correspond to which constructs, but with a bit of time you'll have an intuition as to which to choose. When you aren't connected to any of them, they won't bother you in any way, unless you count the non-intrusive feeling of having navigable areas of your mind a bother." If Seth were to cast his awareness at that moment, he would still have perception and understanding of his own senses, although with something like a sixth-sense that allowed him to feel the shape and aspects of the construct. When he was to first feel the sense, it would likely feel separate, with focus needed to process the information, but with enough uses it would feel just like the other five.
