After an entire day of sleeping and recovering, Erik slowly opened his eyes while in the arms of his two beautiful wives.
He started the day with a smile. He was excited to test out the power of his new affinity, both in combat with Astrid, and as a tool for smithing after learning the Frostvolt technique.
'Previously, Astrid and I mostly fought using our physical prowess, but I'm excited to see how thundersnow will hold up against sun, since they're both rank four affinities,' he thought to himself curiously.
He was in no hurry, however, and decided to wait a little longer until Emma and Elora had both woken up.
Luckily, it didn't take long for the two to stir.
In fact, Elora likely was never truly asleep in the first place. She needed to keep an eye on Eira and the sigils in this place, after all. She did get her rest, of course, but never truly enough to recover. Her predicament was part of the reason why Erik was pushing hard to make Eira's medium as fast as possible.
