A Deluge of Magic (event)

I am pulled along into a deep trance of... of... oh my god, where am I? What is this?

There is a flurry of color, a spectrum of a thousand thousand shades of an uncountable series of hues. They morph and flash and I can glimpse no more than a brief moment of red or green before it is another. Some of the colors I immediately realize I have never even seen, and my mind aches before they vanish away. As I struggle to come to terms with what I am seeing, I see the pinpricks of individual stars start to fade through the colors, an endless void just beyond this prism façade my mind is trapped in.

There is... there is a figure there. Something... hooded? Naked? Without form? Their back turned to me, They stare into an abyss of light, a swirling hole at the center of which I realize is my own world. I try to see my homeland, and then am back within my chambers.

My sigh of relief is short, for as I stand, I see the shadows twist and turn with color. Before me sits myself, several servants quietly whispering in the corners as they watch me, and I scream and panic as I realize that I am trapped outside my own body when... the colors streak, they fly from the shadows as if returning to their home. As they strike me in a mass, absorbing through my skin, filling my mouth, my eyes open anew.

I am back in my body now, and realize that the room is in a state of disarray, the servants stumbling to their feet or laying dazed on the floor from what they shout was a blast of great magic. Energy boils off my sweat and comes off my body in a colorful steam, and somehow I feel a new power well from within me.

What power have I unlocked?
