Tri- energy manipulation has evolved to quad- energy manipulation.
Well shit. This is scary. Even the name of the skill is intimidating.
I mean Soul Reaver... it's very chuuni but seeing to pure damage it's done I can't make fun of it. This shit looks like it tore through our dimension. The after math looks like the spacial tears the Taken King uses to steal people away.
Now that I get a good look around, I see everything and everyone else is frozen, like time itself stopped.
???:"Why must you cause more trouble. First last night with Zeus and Odin and now tearing the fabric of reality."
Looking behind me I see Hel standing with her arms crossed and a frown of consternation on her face. Her black hair is messy and her eyes are bloodshot as if she had just woken up.
Dorian:"Yes cause I really wanted to do so. I knew that combining four different energies would tear a whole in this dimension." I saw while waving my hands around exaggeratingly with the Soul Reaver still formed, while making sure it's not pointed towards anyone.
Hel:"Hey watch where you point that thing, you'll kill a God waving that thing around all Willy nilly."
Dorian:"Really... Willy nilly? Anyway how'd you know there was a tear in reality and how'd you freeze time?" I say while narrowing my eyes suspiciously towards her.
Hel:"Well after chasing off Zeus and Odin last night I made sure to keep tabs on you. Plus I look after and care for Nilfheim, which is a separate dimension that connects to midguard through the world tree Yggdrassil. Also freezing time is something any God/Goddess of Death can do. How else would we get anything done, we would have no time for anything. You cant expect us to ferry, judge, and collect the dead without time. We have paperwork for existence sake. PAPERWORK! WHO WANTS TO DO PAPERWORK!?"
Dorian" So the afterlife is a bureaucratic hellhole then? Fuck my life."

Paperwork is the worst time consuming thing ever. It's not that it's hard, it's that it's mind numbing and tedious because it takes so long. Just ask anyone who's ever worked a desk job.
Dorian:"Anyway can you teach my about spacial magic so I could prevent the tears whenever I use the Soul Reaver?"
Hel:"While I really don't want to, I know that if I don't you'll tear up space some more. You're lucky you didn't tear into one of the lovecraftian dimensions. Otherwise we'd be in some deep trouble. So how much do you know about the physics of relativity and quantum mechanics?"
Dorian:" Well with relativity I know the very basics, like say you have twins, you put one in a rocket heading either in orbit around the world or towards the center of the galaxy, and leave the other on planet. The twin on planet would age faster that the one orbiting or heading towards the black hole, and the one in the ship would age significantly slower than the one on planet. They'd both technically be the same age, but one would have an older body. As for quantum mechanics, I only know about to shitty non- true example of a wormhole. A scientist in my dimension said that a wormhole could connect not only two points in space, but also in time. Like you have a piece of paper, fold it in half, and poke a hole through it with a pencil. That is the theory accepted by common folk in my world, but the scientists say that that's further from the truth. I forget what the scientists say though, I only got a 'B' in physics class."
Hel:"That will have to suffice. Now imagine the world around you is that ship you spoke of and that there is a whole that needs repairing. Feel the tear, the with all your being pull the edges of reality together and meld them."
.....
Dorian:"Dafuq bullshit is that. I dont know how to feel for existence. That's like saying feel the neurons firing off in your brain. You know it's happening but you don't feel it. Unless you have a migraine."
Hel:"Think of the tear as a migraine for this dimension." She says with a voice filled with annoyance.
*sighs*
I cross my legs and focus all four energies to sense them around me, I feel all the energy and then direct my attention towards where I feel an absence of all energy which is the tear in space.
The feeling I get from that tear is the same I get from those three in the robes and masks.
Does this mean those three are tears in reality? How did they become, from what i can tell, sentient?
Changing my focus back to the tear in front of me, I use all for energies to grab both sides of the tear and bring them together, I then use the energy to fuse the fabric shut.
Time starts over again and Hel is missing and the table I was sitting at was repaired.
Congratulations, you've learnt spacial manipulation.
Soulgrip has evolved to grip onto reality itself as well.
Your spacial affinity has increased by 25%.
Your spacial resistance has increased by 25%.
