Mira swallowed, nodded once, and stepped out of the shed, glancing back one last time before slipping away.
I watched her leave, and a stray thought crept in.Should I share Toxic Core with her too?
The idea lingered for a moment… then I shook my head.
No. That would be reckless. Mira wasn't ready for something like this. Even Flogga, who was naturally inclined toward toxins and already tougher than most goblins, was struggling through the adjustment. Giving a skill like that to someone whose body wasn't built for it would be dangerous.
So no Toxic Core for Mira. Not now. Maybe not ever.
I'd just give her the simple skills, the ones that didn't alter anything deep or require a whole skill line to anchor them.
Flogga looked up at me again, her breathing steadier now, and said,
"You should leave as well, young totem. Don't you have matters to attend to?"
