The ball continued to grow until it touched the runes. When it reached that point, a beam of light shot up in the sky with the sound of a small explosion. A few seconds later, the runes turned blue and shone brightly on the ball. Then, with a blue-white flash that lasted a split second and another sound of a small explasion, the light disappeared again. Instead of the light, Michen could be found, sleeping on the ground.
