In the very next day, Eric made his way down the Volcano. Meaning, he jumped from the edge of the Volcano and down in the Lava as if he jumped in a lake, head first. Xalk enjoys the sound of splatter once Eric dives down the Lava, but recently he has been busy with other things, The Blue Bubbles.
Although Eric still isn't scared enough to let go of this habit, Xalk's paranoia towards the new bubble has led him towards the fact that life isn't how it used to be anymore. It is all Paranoia and detachment now, followed by sleep deprivation.
Eric thought that the Calidum Lutum can't get noticeable eye sacks due to their natural dark skin, but man he was wrong. Considering the fact how Xalk currently looks, he wouldn't escape the description of a crazy man.
