Awakening

...we still know next to nothing about the process we call "Awakening". I will summarize our knowledge as best I can.

- Ancient Research Journal

Readers may awaken objects by which process they transform their physical appearance and properties and granting increased power. Awakening an object also seems to impart a small degree of "awareness" to the object; the strength and nature of the awareness is related to its original "Intent". Once an object has been "Awakened" it may not longer be further "Invested" or "Awakened" for a second time.
