Jezenet released an audible exhale. "What's done is done already. We move forward."

"That's the spirit!" Lirae smiled wryly as Jezenet shot her a death glare.

"Alright, alright," she raised her hands in resignation, rolling her eyes.

Jezenet's tone grew more serious as she shifted her gaze away from Lirae. "Getting to the other apexes will be tough, considering they belong to the superior races."

"The two mid-race apexes will also be slightly challenging; however, the lower race apex…" She paused thoughtfully.
