“Wow,” I said.

“Excellent,” Keysia cheered.

The fire elemental stood idly at about five feet tall, and I could feel the heat emanating from it, even from a few meters away.

“I guess I just urge it do whatever I want?” I asked.

“Yes, like you do with Sora,” Keysia said. “But simple elementals like this usually can’t communicate with you. They can do your bidding and nothing more.”

I urged the elemental towards Keysia, and it immediately began floating over to her, singeing foliage and leaving scorched trails along the way.

Keysia’s eyes shot up as the elemental approached, and she took a step back as if readying herself for an attack.

Before the elemental could make it in range of Keysia, I urged it back and to move towards me. The elemental immediately changed gears and headed in my direction.

I wasn’t really sure what to do with the elemental at that point. It was hot enough that it was doing damaging to everything it touched, and there wasn’t anything in sight for me to test its fighting skills against. I decided to let it go to avoid damaging too much of the forest.

I tapped my staff on the ground again, focusing on dismissing the elemental, and it almost instantly started growing smaller as the flames twirled towards the ground and vanished, leaving nothing but a bit of smoke floating in the air.

“That should make you a stronger mage,” Keysia said.

I grinned a little, but I remembered getting my ass handed to me by Liam. “I’ve still got quite a bit to go.”

“You’ll get there.”

“Thanks,” I said. “I hope so.”

Keysia looked down to the ground and cupped her hands together behind her back. I could tell something was on her mind.

“Is everything okay?”

She nodded. “Yeah, everything is fine. I just wanted to catch up with you, since we haven’t spoken much the last few days.”

“Sorry about that,” I said. “I’ve been training with the Mages Guild, grinding as much as possible in my free time, and then today with Liam and Adeelee…” I felt a bit of a knot form in my throat as I mentioned Adeelee’s name. Partially because I was worried about her, and partially because I hated talking about Adeelee with Keysia.

“You really care about her, don’t you?” Keysia said.

I hadn’t expected the question, so I was at a loss for words. Of course, I cared about Adeelee, but I didn’t want Keysia to take it the wrong way. I struggled with my answer for a moment, before finally settling on the truth. “Yeah, I do.”

“I know,” Keysia said. “Thank you for being honest. I like that about you.”

“Thanks for understanding,” I said. “Adeelee was one of the first people I met when I entered Eden’s Gate. We’ve developed a great friendship. And I’m an ambassador, of course.”

“A friendship like you and I have?” Keysia asked with a smirk.

I blinked and briefly squeezed my eyelids tight as I tried to alleviate the pressure forming around my temples.
