Vulcan, Mark and Telia make their way forward after winning their fight. On their way forward they meet up with Fodre and Desin. They notice Desin being severally hurt, and ask what happened . "Shit is he okay? What happened here?."(Vulcan) "Another knight had appeared and when we killed it, it exploded and Desin had already used more then enough of his energy. He had exhausted himself and got caught in the blast."(Fodre) "Is he still alive? Maybe he's barely breathing."(Mark) "Yeah…barely, we need to treat him immediately, why don't you and Telia take him away and help him. I'll stay with Vulcan and help Aindri."(Fodre) "Yeah, okay good luck guys."(Telia) "Right, let's go we gotta hurry."(Vulcan) Mark and Telia leave the castle carrying Desin shoulder by shoulder. Vulcan and Fodre pick up the pace heading towards Aindri."I wonder if he is okay. If the General is stronger then the knights then he could be in serious trouble."(Vulcan) "He can hold his own. He's ranked D+ and so is the General so they should be evenly matched."(Fodre) "Yeah I guess you're right, gotta stay positive."(Vulcan) They finally reach the throne room and open the door inside. They notice rubble and stones in the ground, the walls cracked and destroyed. An intense battle had just finished here. "What happened here? The whole room is destroyed."(Vulcan) "I guess they really went at it. But where is he?"(Fodre) They take a glance around the room and finally notice Aindri, and only a few feet away they also notice the General laying in the ground. "No way, he defeated it by himself? Haha he really is insane!"(Vulcan) "Haha…you guys are still alive aye."(Aindri) "Well we are definitely in better condition then you are that's for sure. But let's stop talking and get you home now."(Fodre) "Yeah, im bleeding out here. But get me his sword I really liked it's ability."(Aindri) "Yeah alright mate."(Vulcan) Vulcan picks up the General's sword and take Aindri with Fodre outside the Castle. Some time after they all meet up in the Healer's Tavern. "So how are they?"(Vulcan) "The healer said they didn't suffer life threatening injuries but definitely need to rest for a few days, so we'll just have to wait."(Fodre) "Im still surprised that he was able to take the General by himself, none of the beginners ever had such a strong ability."(Mark) "What is his ability by the way, is the reason he didn't wanna share it because it makes him crazy strong?"(Telia) "Maybe, but it's not up to us to give that information out. You'll have to ask him again and maybe he will tell you."(Fodre) "Yeah that's fair, after all he didn't wanna share it when we asked last time."(Mark) "By the way did you guys get stronger from the fight? In this world if you defeat stronger opponents then you gain more spirit energy, making you stronger overall."(Mark) "I think so but we haven't gotten a chance to check. It is at the Guild tavern right?"(Fodre) "Yeah or you can buy a energy crystal for 10 gold coins at the Merchant's shop."(Mark) "Oh, alright. Why don't we go check our strength now?"(Fodre) "Sounds good. I wanna know how strong I become!"(Vulcan) "Yeah and anyways for right now we can't talk to Aindri and Desin. So might as well do something in the meantime."(Mark) They leave the Healer's Tavern and walk towards the Merchant. "Welcome! What can I sell to you young adventurers today? Special offers today only!"(Merchant) "Yeah these guy's wanna buy a energy crystal, got any in stock?"(Telia) "Well of course, let me go get one real quick."(Merchant) He goes to the back of the shop and after a few minutes he comes back with a crystal in hand. "Here you go young lads, 10 gold pieces please!"(Merchant) Fodre takes out a small pouch containing the gold. "Here you go, 10 gold pieces."(Fodre) "Thank you very much, the crystal is all yours."(Merchant) "I thought it would be shinier, does it really show us our stats?"(Vulcan) "Yes it does. We have one but it's back home. It works just fine."(Telia) "Hmm okay I guess, well shall we go now."(Fodre) They settle on going back to the waiting room in the the Healer's Tavern and place the crystal in the middle. "Right, who wants to go first?"(Fodre) "Well I been wanting to check for some time now so I will."(Vulcan) Vulcan places his hand over the crystal, after a few seconds the crystal shines and words appear in the air, like a sheet containing all stats and abilities.

Don't feel bad kid."(Fodre) "No way will I ever get surpassed by you."(Vulcan) "Yeah, okay."(Fodre) As they finish talking and seeing their new stats an apprentice healer opens the door and comes in. "Hello, sorry for the disturbance but I wanted to inform you that Aindri has awaken. He recovered much faster then expected."(Apprentice) "Seriously?? That's very impressive, and what about Desin?"(Mark) "Sadly he's still in bed, he hasn't recovered.
