Chains

If the mana wasn't around his neck, then where was it?

Maelis had mentioned that it wasn't necessary there, but it was supposed to be close but as he explored the area of his neck.

He stayed in the darkness, unable to find this little blue ball of energy that Maelis had talked about.

"I can't find it," said Aiden, keeping himself in a meditative state, not moving any other muscle except his mouth.

"Try to look around your abdomen; it should be around there," announced Maelis, as she was almost sure that it was going to be there.

Aiden listened and started to look at where his abdomen was located, but once again, he couldn't find his mana.

"It's still not there," said Aiden, deciding not to listen to Maelis anymore as he simply started to explore the dark areas inside his body.

Maelis said something to him, but he simply ignored it.

As he started exploring what was inside him, he started hearing some weird noise.
