Ethan hadn't spent too long linked with each of his beasts.
He didn't want to strain himself, annoy them too much, or leave his actual body vulnerable to attack.
Unlike the previous times he'd used Beast Link, however, he seemed capable of splitting his consciousness to some degree. Not entirely, but enough that while he experienced everything through the bodies of his beasts, he remained somewhat aware of what was happening to his own body.
It was almost as though Spark, the beast he was assimilated with, was protecting him from within his own body.
Even so, Ethan wasn't willing to take unnecessary risks.
Unlike the Tower, his condition wouldn't reset if he suffered a major injury, and no second chances were waiting for him if something went wrong. Still, using Beast Link again after so long had been incredible. Not only had it put into perspective just how much Wolfy and Talon had progressed, but it had also given Ethan several new ideas.
