As the group ventured deeper into Eldoria, they stumbled upon a hidden library filled with forgotten tomes. There, Ethan discovered the story of a legendary mage named Alaric, who had vanished centuries ago. According to the texts, Alaric was said to possess unparalleled power, capable of reshaping reality itself. Ethan felt an uncanny connection to the mage's legacy and vowed to understand the true extent of his abilities.
While Lyra and Dorian honed their skills, Ethan dedicated himself to studying magic. He learned to summon firestorms, create barriers of force, and even manipulate time in small ways. However, he kept the full extent of his powers a secret, fearing that his friends would see him as a threat or a burden.
