All of Emma's and Ning's cores were in the Physical Improvement realm and thus were low on Essence when they walked out. Because of how strong their body was from the start, they couldn't even reap any benefits of having superior physical strength at all.
Umbra had now reached incredibly close to the Divine realm and her two cubs were both in the 5 Sense Improvement realm.
The male cub, which was now named Lory, was around the size of an adult white cat. He still had the body and face of a cub and was technically still one, but he had the intelligence of a 3-year-old human.
He had a playful personality and would run around a lot, jumping around everyone when he wasn't learning something.
His sister, the female cub that was named Lyra, was slightly smaller in size than him. She was leaner and less playful than her brother. She mostly spent time with her mother, or on Emma's shoulders.
Never did she like to come to Ning's body at all.
