The training field soon became bustling, some heading toward the gates for patrol, others toward the armory or barracks.
Delicia also started to move. However, instead of heading for her duty, she walked toward the far edge of the field, where the ground dipped unnaturally, as if something immense had once struck the earth and never truly let it heal.
Needless to say, she was walking towards the crater, where the Hammer of Resolve rested. At some point, trying to lift it had become part of daily routine though not officially.
While the Commander did say that they should try to wield it, it was not a command. That being said, every member of the Temple of Light, from veteran holy knights to fresh recruits, had stepped into that crater at least once to lift the hammer.
They poured every mana, strength, faith and stubborn pride in their body, everything they had into that moment.
Nevertheless, the outcome was the hammer never budged from its place.
