As he rummaged through his belongings, his hand closed around the familiar shape of his phone. He pulled it out and examined it, feeling a pang of nostalgia. He missed the world back home, with its constant hum of electricity and the ease of communication.
But as he turned the phone on, he was met with a dead screen. No signal, no battery life. He cursed under his breath, realizing he had forgotten to pack a charger.
Just then, Minor appeared beside him, his eyes fixed on the phone. "What's wrong?" he asked.
Ethan explained the situation, and Minor nodded thoughtfully. "I think I can help," he said. "I've found a way to harness the crystal energy in this world to generate power."
Minor led Ethan to a corner of the cave, where a glowing crystal formation pulsed with energy. Minor touched the crystal with his hand, and the room seemed to brighten slightly.
