(Re)Boot Camp

The main objective behind my stay in the mountains was me being able to practice my abilities and find out what exactly were the properties and limits of my powers. I had a hunch back then that I was holding myself back but I had no idea just how much I could accomplish had I cut myself loose. Since my ability to control gravity needed me to focus quite a bit, I decided to try meditation since it would help me cool off and channel my mental energies towards the task at hand. I should have tried meditation earlier because what I discovered after my first session was quite fantastic.

I learned two things about my sphere of control- One: The radius of that sphere kept growing as time passed and if I focused quite hard I could double it as long as I could maintain my concentration. Two: My eyes were useless. Apparently, not only could I just control everything within my control sphere but also "sense" everything inside it. Simply put, I was aware of everything within the sphere and I could lock on to objects both large and small.

For my first experiment, I locked on to a pen and I was completely aware of its physical characteristics, both on the outside and the inside. I was somehow able to visualize details I had never visualized before. The design was exquisite. Usually, when we see with our eyes, we focus on just one point at a time, but with this ability, I was able to see everything simultaneously. The moment I became aware of this, I had a terrible headache because I was unable to handle the massive load of cognitive details of the objects within my control/sense sphere.

It took me the better part of an hour to relearn how to focus on the things I wanted to focus on like before, however, now that I had unlocked this ability I was able to control the amount of stuff I wanted to focus on. This allowed me to go from minute details to complete holistic views which abstracted everything I focused on. The smallest detail I could focus on was about 0.001 cubic millimeters (assuming a spherical shape) in size at time time; which was the size of a very tiny water droplet. With my eyes, I could barely see such an object but using my sensing ability I could visualize it clearly.

What I had done was learned how to see once again; only this time I could see more... a lot more.

Later, I found out that my ability to sense was merely a byproduct of my ability to create and manipulate gravitational fields. Matter always exerts gravitational forces on matter, via gravitational fields (I know I am oversimplifying so I request the physicists to forgive me) and since I could manipulate these fields, I could also sense them. Sensing them also gave me an idea of the things that created these fields and thus I could "sense" these things.

It seemed, at that moment, that I was opening Pandora's Box. Except, Pandora let everything out in one go which led to shit hitting the fan. In my case, I was taking it slow and steady, because I wanted to win the game. The next day, I decided to see what kind of gravity manipulations I could do so as to get things moving.
