Just as he did before the Halve mission, Kael woke up early in the morning and went straight to meet Hakon.
When he arrived at their usual place, he again found Hakon already there waiting for him.
Once again, he had failed to arrive before him... but this time, he didn't care too much about that.
Because he was excited.
And seeing his excitement, Hakon couldn't help smiling.
"So... let's first talk about what it means to follow a Path and progress through it."
Kael nodded meekly, his ears pricked up and his eyes wide.
"You already know that a Path is determined by what one has experienced in their life and is tied to a certain concept. So following a Path requires acceptance, understanding, intimacy, and more with that concept. As you progress in these things, you progress in your Path. And at certain points, you advance in some stages."
Hakon went to the side of the room and picked up a book. He opened it and showed Kael a page.
