Truen and Bob returned to find Zero holed up in the guest room. The doctor had dark circles under his eyes and it took Bob to physically remove his master from the room and Truen's spell to put Zero to sleep. Sylvia wasn't doing any better and the dragon threatened the Great Sylph to rest up or the purification process will not go right if she fails to maintain a steady flow of mana which was an obvious lie.
Once their job was done here, Truen visited Jynx to talk about business while Bob held onto Zero's i-communicator to coordinate the different projects on behalf of his resting master. Gaia sent news that they were able to successfully cross-pollinate the two world trees. The Tree of Life was now focussed on growing a new fruit from the cross-pollination. As the growth of the fruit was exceptionally quick, they only had about a week before it fully matured.
