Gulwige nodded slightly, a gentle smile on his face: "No need to be polite, Lynch. Helping you is also helping myself, and more importantly, it's for the future of all wizards and even our world."
Lynch felt a bit embarrassed by his words, as if an invisible mantle of responsibility and mission quietly pressed on his shoulders.
The old man seemed to notice his discomfort, his tone softened: "There's no need to feel pressured. I tell you these things because I want you to understand that the research we're engaged in is a cause for pride and honor."
"We are laying bricks for the advancement of all wizards, for the great cause of our civilization breaking free of its cradle and moving towards the stars. Remember this significance, as sometimes it can provide more strength than any spell."
Lynch took a deep breath and nodded solemnly: "I will keep this in mind, Master."
