Eye of the Storm Basic Info

Eye of the Storm Image
Eye of the Storm
Adventurer Handbook Description
The corporeal form of extremely high-quality Anemo energies. The formation of an Eye of the Storm indicates that the elementa ley lines of a region are blocked, which has led to siltation. Its reckless, heedless wielding of storms that all but sweeps people off their feet may be due to its nature as a symbol of the world stricken by malaise.
