Any idea why stopping a dance drains IF? I was dancing eagle, which allows me to build IF when I am dancing. I stopped and here is the before and after meditations:

You begin to meditate upon the centaur amulet, your inner fire swelling as you center your mind, body, and spirit.

Surrounding your reflection is a brilliant aura of beautiful flames extending nearly twice your height above your body.
You feel a jolt as your vision snaps shut.

The riveting gaze of the Eagle continues to sharpen your senses.
K>
Your body is mostly dry now.
K>dance stop

You slowly relax, letting the power of the dance fade from your core.
K>med amu in my pack

You begin to meditate upon the centaur amulet, your inner fire swelling as you center your mind, body, and spirit.

Surrounding your reflection is a brilliant aura of beautiful flames extending a little more than one and half times your height above your body.
You feel a jolt as your vision snaps shut.

Thanks for the quick response. Only explanation I can think of then is that IF did pulse down from dance in the several seconds between meditations. I have not seen it drop from eagle before, but must have missed it.
