Lightning

Lightning is a variant form of none of the primary elements. It does not come from fire but another mysterious source. The way it works is similar to aether, but it is still unknown whether it comes from aether or not. It can be formed when the caster stretches the magicules and mana particles apart and releases them, slamming back into each other. The spontaneous crashing together creates a large about of friction and static electricity.

Lightning can combine with sound magic to create devastating thunder. The extreme heat of the lightning ignites the air around it creating a loud thunderclap. Lighting already creates the sound of thunder, but if the air is vibrating, it can create a devastating affect.

Lighting magic is difficult to control. It can shoot out in random angles and directions. Skilled casters can direct the path of lightning by using thin strands magicules.

Skilled fighters have learned to circulate lightning through their muscles and body to increase senses and body movement.

Lightning also exists in the Upper World. There are galactic thunderstorms which can electrify meteors. The cavities in the meteors can collect the mysterious liquid in the storms. Most of the liquid evaporates in the air and during the path toward the surface. It is known as star essence.
