			==== Secondary Essence ====
			Secondary essence is the essence used by the body to passively enhance it. This essence can not be used for spellcasting. Different essence types impact the body in different ways, like building up secondary motion essence will passively increase speed, compared to secondary sight essence which increases eyesight. Having secondary essence of the same type as the essence in a Dianis Point can increase resistance to that type of essence.


			Lien has a significant amount of secondary essence from the "tea" and food that Gramps makes him.

			Lien has absorbed a decent amount of sword essence as secondary essence using his Draw Sword technique to speed up the absorption process. Sword essence generally increases Lien's physical strength, especially striking strength, and it has smaller benefits for durability and speed.

			Lien has absorbed some breach essence as secondary essence which has enabled him to hear the echoes (beings created by a breach on the plane of memory) without the use of a technique.

	'''Shattering Sword'''		'''Shattering Sword'''

	Shattering Sword is a sword essence technique that uses Sword Sharpening Shroud as a base and splits it with the strange sword aspect that Lien finds absurdly easy to use. Once the sword aura has been cut then Lien uses a deflection aspect to deflect the split auras away from each other. Timing for this technique is very important. This technique effectively causes the split ~~auras to cut~~ through things in multiple positions. However, the range is still short.
