It was the second day of training with the heroes—and of the ongoing analysis of Lilith's magical formula.
As usual, I made my way to the training hall alongside Runa.
She looked unusually energetic this morning. Probably because she was excited to spend more time with the other familiars. Yesterday, she had played with Ei until she was practically frozen solid, tried speaking to Cain's still-unhatched Salamander egg, and even attempted to bond with Theresia's Byakko.
She'd also tried to talk to Freya's Phoenix, though it never revealed itself. Judging by the glint in her eye, she was determined to try again today.
When I stepped into the hall, I noticed that King Aslan and Amelia weren't present. They were training in a separate space today—King Aslan needed to help her grow accustomed to the Durandal sword and form a bond with Hyperion.
I was genuinely looking forward to the day Amelia completed that bond. Maybe I'd sneak a peek at their training session later.
