The [Land] referred to one's own body. A Land Dharma King could manifest a Dharmic Ethereal Self to surround themselves—but only one. And it could never stray far from their form.
It was bound to the body.
Bound to the land.
Yet if one grew powerful enough, they could break that limit—calling forth multiple manifestations, letting them move with autonomy and enforce their will.
That was the power of the Sea and Sky Dharma Kings.

Achilles watched Rose who had pounced on him again as he snapped his fingers, retrieving their floating clothes from the dim spring waters. They wrapped around them once more.
Her radiant form was covered again, letting him focus on the serenity of her transformation. Her eyes were closed. Her breathing even.
There were no more stars hovering around her—they had fused into her body.
She had merged with her Ethereal Selves.
What once flickered with illusion was now becoming part of her very being.
