Silver Skull

"Oh, Gods. The gods are LAUGHING at me and my lack of eyelids." he spun away from me. His eyes glowed, and spinning spiral patterns began forming on the far wall. "Okay, now THIS is a process called cycling your mana, or spiraling your chi, or spinning. Think of it as dry cleaning for the soul."

"Dry cleaning?" I asked. I mean, I figured it was a process like goblin cold cooking. Take away the water...

"Ugh." Morgendramen said. "Look. Spin your energies around seven sticks, a minimum of seven times per stick. Pick off the bits of crud or other energies that appear. Do NOT use these sticks for multiple energies; get new mystic sticks."

"Now, as you do this, the bits will gunk together and mingle, so it's important to run those along their own set of sticks, plucking off threads and getting them to their own cycles."
