They successfully killed the bear giving them the sweet taste of victory. They kept practicing for the entire week. They all gladly kept practicing as they wanted to minimize the chances of failure.
One day before the expendition
All squads weren't together today as they were all in their classes to receive materials that would be used on the field trip.
Elite class.

"I'm glad all of you are taking it seriously and are practicing well. I didn't tell you this but if you loose a member you loose half your points. If you loose two you loose all your points three or four means expulsion."
She places her hand in a box and brought out one of many bracelets. The bracelet looked normalJust a strap with three orbs. If you looked at the strap close enough you'll see the runes on it that look like vains.
" This is your space bracelet. It was created by space magicians. Word of advice when you're all ripe and ready to awaken your second power. Try researching on space magic maybe you might be lucky. If you're lucky enough and awaken it, you hit the jackpot.
Now back to the main course. Come take one bracelet each."
After the bracelets have been distributed she bid them good luck and told them to get the fuck out.
After ini got back to his room he called for his squad mates .
"I'm not a big fan of speeches but you need to here this. Tomorrow marks the start of our life's as real mages.
we start our journey tomorrow. We have been told that the journey would be hard and dangerous but we got to keep going. For us to have the strength and passion to keep going we need a strong foundation.
We need a landmark to remind us how we started the journey. We must come out victorious so in the future when things are tough, we'll remember or victories and be willing to keep fighting on.
This is our first war (figure of speech) we must have a victory. It's very necessary. If we win we move forward proudly and if we lose..... We must not loose. Now let go prepare.
Lightning God clan.
In a huge hall, a round table with officials sitting could be seen. This were all the heads of the lightning God clan. They ranged from mere branch leaders in small towns to the patriarch him self.
This is an annual meeting that allows all of them to gather and give account about various tasks and businesses they have done or ought to do.
" The meeting shall commence at once. So I'll like to hear the reports." The man sitting in front of all of them said.
A middle aged man at the back sit stood up and began " greetings patriarch, the production of thunder crystals has gone uo by 30% ever since we stumbled upon that land." He takes his sit and another person stand
"The alliance we are trying to forge with the lami clan is about to be successful but I think it's better we don't through a political marriage to make things real patriarch." He sat down waiting for a response.
Since this was a matter that requires his answer the reports we on hold till it was settled or adjourned.
" That would be wise paper contracts are fickle. So have you discussed with them whether they agree?."
"Yes patriarch. They said they would allow tomiwa the second ranked younger generation of their clan to get married to someone of equal caliber from ours " the same man answered. This answer made everyone silent. The reason is because when a man married a woman in youruba land the woman is to leave her home and go to her husbands home to start her new life. That's the way it is and in sects rules by women they adopt as no man would willing take up a woman's name in yourba land as it tarnishes their image.
This means they would have to give up a talent for the alliance. The clan they are trying to forge an alliance with us a clan beneath them but strong enough to give them an headache. It's better to have lots of friends than enemies.
"So which younger generations do we have suitable for that position?" The patriarch asked in a stern tone. The "suitable" meant that won't affect the clan if lost. As a powerful clan that has been around for centuries, they actually "rare" political daughters for situations like this.
How does one end up a political daughter? If one doesn't meet expectation.
Another man stood up to answer " presently we have three candidates, moyin, busayo and... Ayo. They all have low level wards and have remarkable prowess."
The patriarch turned to a person by is left side giving him the go ahead to make the decision.
The man stood up and said" of all three busayo has been showing massive improvement removing her from the list, moyin carries out tasks for the clan although not her remarkable fighter her contribution to the clan can't be left out leaving ayo although young should fill the spot perfectly.
"Mmmm, tell ayo's father to break the news to he....." Before the patriarch could finish his sentence, lightning started to crackle and it kept shining bright till an old man sould be seen. He was floating behind the patriarch allowing every one to see him .
They all got up and prostrated
""""Ancestor""""
"He didn'treply and just started talking when they got back on their feet "be warned, don't touch ayo. Let her remain as she is. Don't plan anything for her and mostly don't do anythin against her will, any of you who does shall face my wrath. "
A loud boom was heard and he was gone. Although they were confused why their ancestor was intrested in the child they new better to not go against him few in the world would. Out of those dew none would come out unscathed.
They decided to use the fourth candidate. She wasn't mentioned because she isn't yet of age but they would just engage them and marry them when she was old enough.
