The Price of Power

Determination shining in his eyes, he stepped into Luna's shaky hut.

Yet, he didn't continue on the matter. Luna made her stance clear about her revival: she didn't believe he could do it. Talking about it wouldn't make things progress in the correct direction, either. Therefore, he kept this goal close to his heart and decided not to speak about it anymore.

Instead, he focused on progressing and moved to her.

"Please, teach me today."

She crossed her long legs, her lips curling into a smirk.
