Shadow Slave

Sunny raised an eyebrow, pleasantly surprised. Three enchantments on a Memory of the First Tier... that was rare. As an amateur sorcerer, he knew just how hard it was to build a varied spellweave around a single nexus.

Intrigued, he continued to study the runes.

[Legacy of Twilight] Enchantment Description: "This Memory greatly improves the rate at which the wearer's essence is replenished at the borders between day and night."

[King's Resentment] Enchantment Description: "This Memory grants the wearer complete immunity to mind attacks, but plagues them with irresistible wrath instead."

[Royal Promise] Enchantment Description: "This Memory infuses authority over water into the wearer's Domain. The extent of this authority depends on the might of the Domain."

Sunny scratched the back of his head.

The first enchantment was rather straightforward, and extremely useful - granted, that usefulness was situational. It would greatly speed up his recovery of essence at the borders between day and night, meaning dawn and dusk.

The second enchantment... was tricky. Complete immunity to mind attacks was an incredible trait to have, but it came at the cost of being consumed by mad fury. Sunny wasn't sure what to make of it. Luckily, it was an active enchantment, so he could use the other two without going berserk.
