Ty was walking alongside Wels as they were discussing the future past the encounter with the Ghast of Shorstone. It wasn't anything new, and the path they took was the same one they always did. Nothing was out of the ordinary, if anything it was the same as always.
But, out of the blue, Wels collapsed to his knees.
"Are you okay?" Ty said just as he managed to catch the master.
Wels had a strange look on his face, as though he was pained and exhausted. But just as soon as it appeared, it vanished, buried under a nice and friendly smile.
"Yes, my apologies. This power takes a toll on me sometimes, especially using it so haphazardly."
Ty took a deep breath.
"If the strain is so great, then why use it so much?"
Wels smiled, but it didn't shine so bright knowing the pain that lay beneath it.
