Tolan stood at the edge of the pool of silver liquid, focusing on what he was able to detect within it. There was a sense of power from the Convergence, much like there was a sense of power around every Convergence. Tolan had yet to learn how many were in the world, though there were at least seven throughout Terndahl. This one was situated within an enormous cavern, far beneath the Academy building itself in a place very few people within the Academy were aware of. More people now were aware of it, though that was out of necessity.

He swept his gaze around the inside of the cavern and focused on the power he could feel. There was energy that rose up, drifting not just from the Convergence but drawn out of that pool and carried somewhere else. The runes on the Academy used the power of the Convergence, focusing it and allowing the master shapers who understood the runes to use it. It was this power that the rune within his spirit tower connected to.

There was something to be said about coming here and experiencing the power that existed here and feeling the energy. Not only that, but stepping into the Convergence opened him to something more.

Using a shaping of earth and wind, along with spirit, Tolan closed off the room. There would be a few shapers who would recognize what he did and would be able to slip past it, but the only ones likely to do so would be the Grand Master and Master Minden. He doubted they would even come down here. It wasn’t a place either of them visited that often.

Taking his clothes off, he folded them and set them outside the Convergence. Going in fully dressed would only burn off his clothing, and Tolan had no interest in running through the Academy nude. It was bad enough when he’d been a student, but now that he was a master shaper—and the Master of Spirit—the rumors that would spread weren’t the kind he wanted to encourage.

Tolan used a shaping of wind to carry him up and over the center of the Convergence. Gradually, he lowered himself down, feeling the cool touch of the power of the Convergence as it swept up his legs, tingling through him and rising up through his body. He lowered himself slowly, though he struggled as the sense of power began to surge within him.

The Convergence was power, and through it, he was able to reach for an incredible force. He tried not to think about just how much power was sweeping into him. For now, all he wanted was to be able to open himself up to it and grasp the nature of that power.

When he settled fully into the pool of liquid, Tolan breathed in and out slowly. He embraced the power, letting it flow through him.

He had visited the Convergence many times over the years. At first, when he had discovered the Convergence, Tolan had believed there was a need to avoid entering it unless it was an emergency.
