"Now, with these tools in hands, with these shields and weapons, we'll be stronger than ever," said the Golden Sage as he scanned the crowd. "I bet that is what you all are thinking, right? I hate to rain on your parade, but that is far from the truth. Your tools are better, your training is more optimised, your foundations stronger. But similarly, the challenges you will have to face will be challenges none have seen before.
"There is no need to keep it a secret, word will spread soon enough. We will no longer be bound by this prison of mist all around us. The time has come for us to venture out, to seize the world and make it ours. Yet the world will not yield itself to us so easily. The challenges that lay ahead of you… will test the limits of your being. If you are found wanting, then there will be no second chances."
