On the same day they arrived at their destination, Zaos also learned a new spell. It was called Cleanse, and it actually could decrease the effects of magic attacks. If one suffers from burn marks, it could make the burn marks disappear after casting a few times. Frostbites, paralysis, headache caused by blunt projectiles… it could do all that. It was really useful, but it wasn't what Zaos wanted.
Ameria, Drannor, and the others noticed when Zaos learned a new spell, but they didn't get much excited after that when they heard his long sigh. It was a success, another spell was created, but from Zaos's perspective, it was just another failure.
"Don't worry, Zaos," Ameria said. "You will eventually succeed. I am sure of it."
"I am sure as well, I will succeed, even if it kills me," Zaos said and then began to pack his things in order to leave the ship.
