"Yes... I am quite alright..." The next day, Mirko opened her eyes.
"BROTHER??? BROTHER!!!" She jumped up, yelling and looking around with a scared expression. Alex glanced at her.
"Mirko... your brother was taken by the people who entered our cave. He's alive though..." He gently pushed her shoulders, trying to calm her.
"No... NO, NO, BROTHER!!!" Mirko cried out in despair.
Podalirius, with a kind, grandfatherly smile, stepped forward.
"Calm down now, child. If your brother has been kidnapped by the underground organizations, he's alive." He placed a comforting hand on Mirko's back, soothing her.
Alex, surprised, noticed a faint spark in the air. It seemed to calm Mirko, compressing her anxiety.
