To Atticus, it had been a blip. His time spent in the water sanctum had been speedy.
Unlike Dekai, Atticus had found Liora extremely pleasant to relate with. The woman always radiated an aura of warmth and care akin to a loving grandmother. She was peaceful, just like a tranquil lake.
She had been far too nice, and Atticus couldn't help but feel guilty about the state he left her in.
Just like the fire sanctum, the water sanctum also had its challenges. Liora had been kind enough to explain everything about what Atticus needed to start his journey.
It was exactly what Dekai had told him: it was all in the atmosphere, molecules. All he had to do was sense them, and this had been Atticus's first training.
Atticus followed Liora through the gates of the Water Sanctum.
