First I will explain the various details and implications of the mind meld to fully prepare you ...
Physical contact is required to initiate the link. If you wish to end the mind meld at any time, you may pull away, though I would caution against doing so as the severance of minds will be abrupt and may cause a headache of significant intensity, often accompanied by nausea and sensitivity to light and sound. Rather, direct your thoughts towards mine and request that I cease the link and I will do so.
Those in a meld share consciousness in what multiple individuals have described as a kind of gestalt. It is often overwhelming at first, but slow breathing will aid in your navigation of the link.
At the conclusion of the meld, each mind will retain some knowledge of the other, though I have spoken of the concept of shielding both of our minds to prevent undue wandering through thoughts where the other is unwelcome. Another side-effect is the transfer of emotion; any memory gleaned through the meld will carry the emotional weight that the other person experienced at the time of the memory, or the current emotional state of the other if no memories are shared.
