Only three days remained until the Nexus event would start. After the library session, where Magnus had told Atticus about the superior races and their power, Atticus hadn't shown himself to the outside world again for a long period.
Magnus had done exactly what he said he would do, drilling every single detail into Atticus for two days straight without any break or rest.
It wasn't only about telling him the weaknesses of the superior races; he also had to teach him much more. Their training moved into the advanced training room, where Atticus had to participate in numerous mock battles.
This was the first time Atticus had ever been to this particular advanced training room. He was accustomed to the common training room for the Ravenstein family and had never seen the need to ask for any other. But Magnus had taken him to his personal advanced training room. The training room of a paragon.
