[Darin drops to his hands and knees and starts breathing heavily. He's suddenly very keenly aware that he's sweating bullets. He feels his muscles twitching. He's...energized. Like a surge of his own power just leaked out and now he can take on the world. He's never actually felt anything like that before.]
[Energy gives way to brief nausea then as the power settles and he's gasping, trying to catch his breath. Trying to slow his heartbeat.]
[He felt it. It stirred. That's what was so offputting about this. Not the surge of power. Not the energy. The fact that he was aware of it for the first time in...well, ever.]
