**Synoh:** *(curiously)* "I'm Synoh.
*(noticing Fel's injured state)* "What happened to you? Are you hurt?"
**Fel:** *(lightly brushing off the concern)* "It's nothing, just a scratch. But what about you, young Synoh? Why do I find you crying alone in the forest?"
**Synoh:** *(sniffling)* "It's... it's nothing, really. I just... I miss my mom."
**Fel:** *(gently)* "Ah, the ache of a wounded heart. I understand, little one. Loss is never easy."
**Synoh:** *(tears welling up)* "She's gone, Fel. And I don't know what to do without her."
**Fel:** *(nuzzling Synoh comfortingly)* "I know it feels like the world has turned against you, but remember, you are not alone. Your mother's love still surrounds you, guiding you even in her absence."
**Synoh:** *(sniffling)* "But I don't know how to go on without her."
**Fel:** *(softly)* "You're stronger than you realize, Synoh. Every tear shed is a testament to the love you shared. And in time, that love will become a source of strength, fueling your journey forward."
**Synoh:** *(wiping his tears)* "You really think so, Fel?"
**Fel:** *(nodding)* "I do, young one. And know this: no matter where your path leads, I will always be here, watching over you."

**Synoh:** *(turning to Fel)* "Please, Fel. Stay with us. You'll be safe here."
**Fel:** *(hesitant)* "I appreciate your kindness, young Synoh. But my duty lies beyond these walls. I must continue my journey."

**Synoh:** "What's wrong, Mom? You look upset."
**Lohl:** "It's not that I'm upset, dear. It's just... I worry about you and your future. You have so much potential, Synoh, and I want to see you thrive."
**Synoh:** "I'll do my best, Mom. I promise."
**Lohl:** "That's all I ask, Synoh. But there's something else. Something I need you to promise me."
**Synoh:** "What is it, Mom?"

**Fel:** (smirking) It appears our young protégé has unlocked a new facet of his potential.
**Synix:** (bewildered) Dark magic... But how?
**Fel:** (calmly) Dark magic is often misunderstood, Synix. It is not inherently evil; rather, it is a reflection of the depths of one's spirit. Synoh's bond with me has awakened this dormant power within him.
