Life and Death

Saratoga Castle.

Inside a dimly lit circular chamber, Adam sat crosslegged practicing a round of mindfulness. Mana swirled around him and was absorbed inside his body as his chest rose up and down in a stable manner.

It had been several hours since he was in this seating position. He was practicing mindfulness not just to gather mana inside his body but also to achieve a calm state of mind.

He was about to do something very important. It was perhaps going to be the most harrowing test he had to face. Succeeding would result in him obtaining great power. Failure would lead to unknown consequences.

The Trial of Death!

It was the final test inside the Raven Inheritance. Adam didn't know what it would entail, but he had to be prepared nonetheless.
