The way I understand it, the energy Qri's after varies a little from world to world. Even in Aimintas, we had no idea what we were actually looking for until it literally fell from the sky.

[Slightly apologetic there, because come on.]

I'm hoping that having a feel for what that energy is like means we'll have an easier time figuring things out in the next world, though. Qri's proven she can't be counted on for answers.
