I was never completely satisfied with my first essence map of Seer, so I reworked it. I added some things, moved some things around, and basically fleshed it out a lot. I'm still not 100% satisfied, but this is definitely an improvement. Maybe someday I'll put together a map that I think covers it the best. I used the old XBasic syntax since Jay hasn't introduced the new syntax yet and this is the one I enjoy the most. Let me know what yall think.

I like it! A lot! I especially like the "Holocaust witness" metaphor. Three thumbs up! ;)

Nice work, Seer! I loved how "tuning fork's ring" made me feel.

The Perception and Shock descriptions really stood out to me. This is an awesome map, Seer. I definitely see Seer very well. ;)
