Maeve cannot stop staring at both Arthur and Aldriana as they walk toward the cave entrance.
Liam, beside her, suddenly blurts, "Wow, you two. That was amazing." He calls up his water ball and proudly lifts it to Aldriana.
"Look, I can hold it for almost fifteen minutes now."
Aldriana looks at him, then at the water ball. She notices its shape is no longer wobbling. It stays perfectly round, like a carved sphere. Its color is even and clear, sparkling like an aquamarine gemstone.
She gives Liam a nod of approval. "That is excellent. Look at it. Perfectly round, beautiful color. You have leveled up."
She turns to Arthur. "And you too. Your fire no longer stays wrapped around your fists. It moves ahead of your fist."
"You both have strong resonance with water and fire."
Arthur and Liam straighten with pride.
