"An illusion?" Reesa's voice rose in realization. After a moment's thought, she nodded vigorously. "That makes so much sense. It really was an illusion!"
She suddenly remembered something and added, "I heard some of House Storm's spirit warriors say that you and Prince Kael were the first to come out. They even tried to chase after you, but failed."
Reesa laughed. "Looks like those so-called powerful family spirit warriors aren't as amazing as the rumors make them out to be."
Zora immediately understood who Reesa was referring to and shook her head slightly.
"The foundations of those great families are incredibly deep," she said calmly. "What we've seen so far is only the surface."
She knew Reesa meant well, but she didn't want her friend to underestimate formidable opponents and invite trouble.
Hearing the caution in Zora's tone, Reesa's expression turned serious. She understood that this reminder came from genuine concern—and she took it to heart.
