[Eldergrove Town.]
The small cottage stood quiet beneath the thick canopy of trees.
Outside, the wind rustled through the leaves, but inside, the air was still.
"Hmm, looks like everything is ready."
Akamir mumbled as he sat cross-legged on the wooden floor, a thin layer of sweat already coating his back.
There wasn't much in the place except a few sources of light.
And a bowl of spirit herbs freshly plucked from the garden in the spirit world.
"You sure this will help?" Akamir asked, glancing at Nayomi.
She nodded in response. "Just trust me." She said. "It will make your work a lot easier."
Akamir nodded softly as he observed the herbs.
They shimmered faintly under the flickering light, their scent earthy and slightly sweet.
"Is there something I should keep in mind?" Akamir said, picking up the herb.
"Nothing." She said. "You already are both mentally and physically prepared for it."
Akamir nodded silently before he drew in a deep breath.
'Well, here goes nothing.'
