Alex couldn't stop his tears from forming in his eyes as he spoke to his master.
The one-sided conversation included Alex talking about the various experiences and the knowledge Alex had gained throughout the years.
There was no one to speak back to him, but he continued talking for nearly 15 minutes.
He felt like a weight had been lifted off of him. Like he did something to help himself connect back to his roots, instead of forgetting it.
He wasn't sure why, but he felt like this would improve his chances of a breakthrough now that he had come here.
Alex sent out his spiritual sense around the grave and sensed a weak life force on the other side of the tree.
His master's beast companion, the snake was resting calmly behind the tree.
Alex smiled and stood up to leave. However, before he did so, he thought he should do something for the tree, for his master's sake.
