Congratulations! You have completed the Primordial Might Path! Truly, you are a specimen that has not been seen in the Nexus since ancient times. Every barrier laid before you by the Nexus has now been shattered by your passage; rather than being weakened through the experience, you seem only to be emboldened. In your figure dwells the shadow of figures that are now long extinct. But during the formative years of the Nexus, they truly stood with significant stature…

Congratulation! Your Stat- Error, Recalculating…

Primordial Might (A) and Nether Brawn (A) have been integrated! Your Stat has evolved into Primordial Nether Juju (M)! +100 Primordial Nether Juju! Recalculating Skill… Congratulations! You have obtained the Skill Ancient Nether Fetish (Ru) Lvl 1!

Ancient Nether Fetish (Ru): Your accomplishments in regards to your own body have given you some insight into the essence of an individual. By absorbing some of your opponent’s significance, condense a Fetish of an opponent. By damaging fetish, you will deal a percentage of that damage to the original target. Effect of Fetish does not decrease across distance. Damage percentage with Skill Level. Ease of creation increases with Skill Level. Can have one Fetish per 100 Skill Level.

...

Congratulations! You have completed the Image Cooperation I Path! As you proceed, you’ve developed several independent images that aid you. However, such coexistence can quickly become complicated. It is a Path that few have chosen, but if a well-trodden Path led to the Pinnacle, many would have made it to that holy location. As you take your first steps forward, you can already feel the change come over you; your ability to mix images will only improve as you proceed.

Congratulations! Willpower +25! You have gained the Skill Image Adjustment Lvl 1!

Image Adjustment: As you try and mix your images, you have discovered a method to blur the edges of your images so they more easily assimilate with one another. The process might take a bit of the bite out of your base images, but the combined power you now wield will be well worth it. Ease of combination increases with Skill Level. Multiplicative power of the final image barely increases with Skill Level.

...

Congratulations! You have completed the Image Cooperation II Path! You can be considered to have achieved notable results in the art of combining images. With the force of your will and your inherent daring, you blaze a Path forward into the abandoned and secret places of this wilderness. Yet you can sense that this is only the beginning; your Path may be smooth now, but you see dark clouds on the horizon. And the field in front of you is wide and unpredictable.

Congratulations! Willpower and Focus +40! Congratulations! Your Skill Image Adjustment has evolved into Accomplished Image Adjustment (R)! Some of the drawbacks of the original Image Adjustment have been slightly mitigated.

...

Congratulations! You have completed the Image Cooperation III Path! As you continue forward, you have encountered setbacks in your search for the perfect method to blend your different images. You walk forward through the Wilderness and encounter dead ends and roadblocks more often that you glimpse the light of hope. Such is the difficulty laid before you that even you, for all your determination and drive, must consider whether to compromise.

The problem in front of you has no easy solution.

Congratulations! Willpower, Control, and Focus +20!

...

Congratulations! You have completed the Image Cooperation IV Path! Although your recent progress has been slow, you have never wavered in your determination. The reward might be sparse as you comb through the vast Wilderness for insights, yet you possess the ability to see beyond short-sighted ‘epiphanies’. Pursuing this difficult Path is worth it; of that you are sure. It is just a matter of how far afield you need to travel before you arrive at your destination.

Congratulations! Willpower, Control, and Focus +20! Your Skill Accomplished Image Adjustment has evolved into Determined Image Integration (Ru)! Some negative effects have been mitigated.

...

Congratulations! You have completed the Image Cooperation V Path! You have traveled far and wide to reach this small summit, but it is worth it. As you stand upon this peak, you look down and see the possibilities stretching endlessly before you. There is always more Wilderness in front of you, but now you have obtained a capability that can never be taken from you.

This is not the end, but a new beginning.

Congratulations! Willpower +100! Your Skill Determinated Image Integration has evolved into Image Amalgamation (L)! Through repeated effort, it is now possible to completely fuse several images! Time requirement will decrease with Skill Level.

Randidly chuckled dryly as he looked at the final notification of the Image Cooperation Path. Then he glanced upward once more, to where the giant jellyfish of black lightning was spread out and seeping wider and wider to obscure the sky. But he was truly looking up past the conflict in the sky, at the careful Aether constructs made by the Nexus, which were forced into visibility as the strain on them increased.

“You… your precious System...” Randidly’s eyes flashed with cruel determination. “Do you really think I need your help for managing my images…? This path is mine.”
