Helping the Dojo Master

"You don't want the Elves' help?" Miles asked in confusion. He was pretty sure that his son would accept this offer under normal circumstances.

Was something wrong? Miles expected the worst as he waited to hear his son's voice.

"I don't think that I should leave this place right now. I'm trying to figure out a few things about myself and staying here will probably deliver the answers I'm looking for," Nial finally answered without sharing everything that was going on in his mind right now.

Right now, Nial was not sure if the sacred tree, Yggdrasil, would accept him now that the Symbol of Life had fused with the Odyssey seed. And even if Yggdrasil accepted him, Nial had no idea if the life force supply would actually help him out.

It might somehow help him but Nial didn't think that it was worth traveling back to the Forest of Life because it would take around two months for a one-way journey.
