Bright lightning flashed outside the window followed by the rumbling thunder.

The light illuminated Angele’s face.

He sat near the table beside the window, focusing on the notes he was writing down.

A black slim neck vase was standing on the table quietly. Its ceramic surface was clean and smooth. On top of the vase, there was a fist-sized glowing crystal that brought light to the room.

The light from the crystal was gentle and bright.

*BAM*

The thunder shook the ground again.

Angele put down his notebook on the table, stood up, and walked to the window.

It was noon. He had stayed in the house for about ten days and discovered that a storm would strike the area every three days. The weather here was quite queer.

Angele kept studying the spells he learned recently and once again he was certain that his mentality would not increase just by meditating every day.
