There was a certain calmness to the current Ryu that had never been there before. His expression was the same, but his eyes had gained depth in a way that was impossible to describe.

The air around him was also particularly calm, as though wind itself wasn't allowed to flow freely in his presence or like a vacuum of space had been formed beneath his will.

If one looked closely, it was possible to see a rainbow-colored light swimming through his veins. From time to time, that light would flicker and exit through his pores, forming a gorgeous array of scales that carried a crystalline texture not too dissimilar from Selheira's own.

However, these scales almost looked like illusions of the eye, disappearing mere seconds later as though they had never been there before.
