Although the so-called starter vessel encountered problems when trying to merge with Blinky, the Star Cat easily solved that problem when he proactively facilitated this process.
It took a bit of problem solving, but the vessel finally integrated with the companion spirit, causing him to change in a subtle way.
The best way that Ves could describe the changes was that Blinky gained additional 'ports', in a manner of speaking.
In fact, Ves felt he had gained additional ways to draw upon the vast reserves of the Blinkyverse.
In the past, one of the limitations that made Blinky less effective as a combat supplement was his small throughput. The 'portal' that connected the Blinkyverse to the real universe was too small to channel too much E energy at once.
The so-called starter vessel that just merged with added a new interface that significantly eased this constraint by opening up new ways for him to channel E energy to fuel a powerful demonic technique.
"Fascinating."
