A New Lead

Ethan, seeing that the creature responded positively to consuming his mana, decided to try speaking with it further.

"What's your name? If you tell me, I'll give you more energy," he asked gently.

The Lumiflora recoiled slightly at the question, showing signs of nervousness. But after a few seconds of hesitation, it spoke with a soft and trembling voice:

"F-Floriel. My name is Floriel."

Ethan nodded slowly, trying not to scare her further.

"That's a beautiful name, Floriel. May I ask you something? Why were you watching us?"

Floriel hesitated for a moment, her petals trembling nervously before she replied.

"It's... strange to see people here. This place is bad... very bad. But in a short time, two different people have entered the vortex," she explained, her words filled with curiosity. "That never happens."

Ethan narrowed his eyes.

"Two people? Who was the other one?"

Floriel shook her head, clearly frightened.
