So I wanna talk about an idea I've had about how to make the Faerie Gauge more impactful. Right now it's a resource for Fey Union and Fey Blessing, but Fey Blessing isn't used frequently enough to drain it with how often you can charge it with Aetherflow Spells, and Fey Union can be awkward to use in many situations.

I also want to talk about Embrace. Each expansion, Embrace has gotten weaker and weaker essentially because it's just free healing that doesn't consume any kind of resource, be it MP or the need to cast it as your Faerie is just acting as a heal-bot in most circumstances.

What if we flipped this dynamic around a little bit to allow Embrace to be buffed back up to being a more substantial heal. Here's the concept:

1. Embrace is no longer cast automatically, meaning your Faerie will normally do nothing unless commanded to perform an action.

2. Faerie actions, such as Whispering dawn, Fey Blessing, and Fey Illumination, increase your Faerie Gauge instead of Aetherflow actions.

3. Fey Union is replaced with Command Embrace. Command Embrace orders your Faerie to follow a specific ally and use cast Embrace on them. Each cast consumes 10 Faerie Gauge. While this is in effect, you can still use other Faerie Actions. It would be acquired along with Summon Eos/Summon Selene instead of at level 70.

4. Command Embrace changes to Command Return, which orders your Faerie to cease casting Embrace and return to you. This will also happen automatically if you run out of Faerie Gauge for her to cast Embrace.

5. Seraph can stay working the way she does currently since she's on a time limit.

I think this would let us make Embrace strong again since it will now consume a different resource and makes managing the Faerie Gauge more important.

This could also be expanded on with other actions or new actions in the future.
