As soon as everyone finally returned to their mansion in the Duchy of Vorah, Strax led Apocalypse to the stable at the back of the house, just to brush her coat and give her some sugar cubes and carrots—something he hadn't had much time to do.
His faithful mare, Apocalypse, who had always been an imposing and loyal companion, seemed even more powerful and majestic than before.
Her stature was even more regal, and there was a different energy emanating from her, as if she had undergone some kind of transformation.
"Huh?" Strax blinked, surprised. He squinted at the mare. "You... leveled up?"
Apocalypse whinnied emphatically, as if to confirm his question, and stomped her hoof firmly on the ground, her posture exuding pride. The others in the group also noticed the change, with Samira raising an eyebrow in surprise.
"I knew she was special, but this... is new, a horse... cultivating?" Yennifer commented, tilting her head as she studied the mare.
