Outside the shimmering portal, the peaceful land of Lovaria welcomed the teams. Beneath a pastel sky, Angel Sako stood surrounded by 24 radiant angels, each designated to guide a team toward Questoria's foundational quests.
She stepped forward, her aura glowing gold.
"I've chosen Team E-D-W," she said. "Tyson entrusted you to me, Edward."
Winston gave a mischievous grin.
"Angel Sis, where are we heading?"
Sako smiled.
"To the Mines of Clarity. You have 14 hours. This quest tests your patience and awakening—no battles, only reflection. Sit and begin."
The Trial of Stillness
The trio entered the quiet caverns. Moonlight filtered through crystal veins. Edward found a stone perch, closed his eyes, and whispered:
"Status: Private. Skill Activation – Curtain Falls."
A golden glow surrounded him.
New Skill Gained only one time : Calm Heart – Calms body and increases skill acquisition chance while eyes are closed.
Winston and David followed suit. Silence reigned. Fourteen hours passed.
