The Poor Instructor

After Quinlan left the library, he arrived at the only place recorded in his Seven Celestial Steps—by the entrance of the Crystal Pavilion on Diamond Crystal Peak.

"It feels like it's been a while..." he mused, watching the place with emotion.

Then, without another second, he turned to the right, walking toward the small shed a short distance away. It was where he had previously stored the "loot" he gathered, something like his personal storage area or warehouse.

As he approached, he sensed a familiar presence inside. "So this is where you were," Quinlan muttered with a thin smile.

Without knocking, he pulled the door open and announced, "Wys, I'm back—!"

*ZIIIIIIIN!* *BOOM!*

As soon as he entered, two flashes of light shot past his face, blasting the supports of the cabin.

"I missed?!" The familiar voice of a playful monkey echoed in a panic. "No way!"
