Mako's eventful night finally came to an end as he arrived back at his dorm room. He was pretty exhausted after Magnus' trial and the long meditation session in the mana training class.
He didn't seem to make any progress towards manipulating mana, but Rose assured him that his body was slowly adapting, and once it was in tune with his mind and will, the power would just click inside of him.
Mako didn't completely understand what Rose meant by that, but he decided to have a little faith in his new teacher and try his best to achieve that power.
He was greatly enlightened during his talk with Rose and her conversation with him still lingered inside his head after he left the mana training class.
