"That was very encouraging. Thank you."
Kane laughed when he heard Neo's reply.
He stood up, stretching his arms above his head before rolling his shoulders.
"Percival, I don't know how, but make your breakthrough today. I will start training you and Neo from tomorrow.
"Chances are low that it will be enough to prepare you two for the Grand Expedition, but we need to do our best."
Kane stretched again, letting out a tired yawn.
"What about the rest of us?" Olivia asked, her arms crossed.
"Do whatever you want. Just don't get eaten by some hungry monster. We have a lot of those here." Kane said before making his way toward the door.
After a moment of contemplation, Percival decided to go out and make his breakthrough.
Olivia and Nicolas followed him, intending to protect him during his breakthrough.
Neo was the only one left behind.
He focused on creating Essence.
Time passed slowly, and soon the deep orange of the evening arrived.
