Change in Strategy

Jiro, Mirana, and Riku were gathered at the table, their expressions lighting up when they saw Lassim.

"Hey, Lassim!" Jiro called out, waving him over. "How did it go? Find any stones?"

Lassim walked over and dropped into a chair, feeling a small amount of exhaustion settling into his bones. 

He reached into his pouch and pulled out the two Thunder Source Stones, placing them on the table. The stones glowed with an inner light, their blue and purple hues flickering with contained lightning.

"Managed to find these," Lassim said, a note of pride in his voice. "It was tough, but I think I'm starting to get the hang of it."

Mirana leaned forward, her eyes wide with amazement. "Wow, those look incredible! And you found two on your first day?"

Riku nodded approvingly. "Impressive, especially given how elusive they can be. Any trouble out there?"
