The integration with an Ancient consciousness was beyond anything I could have prepared for. As the Ancient Undead's essence flowed into my form, I felt my awareness expand not just in scope but in depth—suddenly able to perceive layers of reality that had been invisible to my enhanced Ascendant-rank senses.
The physical sensation was extraordinary. Unlike the mechanical armor creation that Erebus provided, Ancient Undead's integration felt organic, natural, as if my body had always been designed to accommodate this level of enhancement. The Abyssal Emperor bones merged with my skeleton, creating adaptive reinforcement that felt like a natural evolution rather than external augmentation. The Storm Titan matrices integrated with my nervous system, accelerating my thought processes to speeds that approached prescience. The enhanced Void Beast essence suffused my entire being, anchoring the enhanced capabilities with consciousness stability that prevented overload.
