Family reunion

The stories about the Tower impressed Ketnas and Greg, as they never had the chance of meeting one who had recently gone there or anyone who would tell what being in the Tower was like. So instead, Shingi used his MINOR ILLUSION or sometimes his MAJOR ILLUSION to present the different creatures they faced, and since he made them with mana, he could shape them in great detail.

But the stories ended, and awkward silence, except for some background noise outside, existed in the room.

Everyone felt terrible about Shingi's situation, especially Volig, as he knew the cost of having a chance to heal these wounds. But he was also confident that if a person could do it, that was Shingi.

"Come on, let's not let the mood go downhills. I am still alive and able to fight. You don't need to worry, and I have a plan as always." [Shingi]

He had a few ideas to try, but there was no certainty of any working.
