Necromantic nodes only serve the purpose of inverting other nodes, as far as you know. Yes, inverted illusion nodes are not actual conspicuous nodes.
Light and dark nodes are actually very distinct, light nodes primarily come from the sun, while dark nodes are created when light nodes are isolated and become "Stale" eventually transforming into advanced darkness, such as in an abyyss.
You invert some necromantic nodes, and they become Neutral, which serve no purpose on their own.
The obsidian totem absorbs mana in the same way living things do. even if you used it to channel magic into yourself, it would serve little purpose, since it would prevent those around you from getting mana regeneration. It would speed up regen however you know.
He coughs up a few sparks, but no real fire nodes. they are integrated into his being.
Your enchantment ability allows you to create a small amount of nodes on a case by case basis, mainly to do with control and manipulation of other nodes.
Evimeria casts a bubble of time slow, and you extract a few magic nodes from it, it appears to be made of magic rather than nodes of time, as you believed.
You create two crystal containers a bottle and a teapot, Quidives creates a potion, while Nahme brews a pot of tea.
The tes is steaming hot, clear and lavender, and smells sweet.
The potion is perfectly cold, Deep purple, and fizzes lightly.
Both of them are just different structures made of illusion nodes, the Tea is loosely connected, while the Potion's nodes are tightly organized.
There is far more tea than potion.
Evimeria steals your bandanna, then motions for Nahme to try, there is not enough to it for a good dance according to Nahme, but she does a little skip past you, snatching the Illusion potion as she passes.
