C207 — Trial of the Shifting AgesRyan’s eyes narrowed as a chill ran down his spine, the faint hum of Dioki thrumming in the air like an invisible heartbeat. “For both our sakes,” he muttered under his breath, his fingers flexing ever so slightly, “I hope you’re secured in that spatial storage of yours.” The words barely left his mouth before reality itself seemed to warp, a tremor of arcane energy passing over him, signaling the sudden materialization of Anna before him. She appeared as if frozen in time, her body rigid, eyes wide but unblinking, caught between life and the unseen currents of Dioki that danced faintly around her like delicate threads of silver light.Moments later, she drew a hesitant breath, the faint rise and fall of her chest the first sign that she had returned fully to the realm of the living.

He extended his hand, pointing directly at the imposing creature, and spoke with a tone that was calm but threaded with unwavering command, “Take me with you.” For a moment, hesitation rippled across the group, a subtle but perceptible shiver of uncertainty that passed from one drake to another.

The color was the most disconcerting aspect, black, as though the fire itself had absorbed all light and spat back only darkness, twisting the forest into a nightmarish landscape of chaos.Kael squinted, analyzing the inferno, noting the way it surged upward

Healing SystemC213: Trial of PainKael’s voice tore through the oppressive silence like a jagged blade, raw and laced with fury as every fiber of his body screamed in protest, the searing agony of uncontrolled mana wrapping around his nerves with a suffocating grip that made even his iron-clad pain resistance quiver, making him stagger in place, clutching his chest, trying to anchor himself against the storm raging within.System, what the fuck, Kael shouted, teeth gritted, every word trembling with frustration as the chaos of Dioki inside him threatened to burst from his skin and shatter the very air, each pulse a hammering reminder of the dangerous force simmering just beneath his control, yet the only response he received was that maddeningly calm, disturbingly indifferent voice that echoed within his consciousness, I am working on it, you anomaly, be quiet.He groaned, muscles taut and mind screaming against the relentless surge, trying despe
