Durwin was particularly impressed by Jaegar's control over his arcane energy, maintaining such powerful spells for an extended period without apparent strain.

Jaegar, however, was not about to let Durwin escape so easily. With a smirk, he followed, jumping across the gap between ships and landing gracefully before Durwin.
"Hey, where are you going?" Jaegar taunted his voice light but edged with steel. "I had to know what I was getting into, so that's why it took some time."
