A thing that had been near the wall of exhaustion returns to a state where its capacity persists through time, though the maintenance that enables this was not present before and the model did not expect it.

Second wind (noun) means: A thing that had been near the wall of exhaustion returns to a state where its capacity persists through time, though the maintenance that enables this was not present before and the model did not expect it. It emerges from energy, maintenance, window, wall: second wind. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 19, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
