Imagine that there are energy fibers, akin to the optical filaments extending from your feet. These fibers will vibrantly shake and stretch their way into the earth below you - no matter how high above it you currently stand! They can absorb energy just as quickly and seamlessly as fiber optics do, linking up with your physical body in an instant.. . .
