A New Journey

I set off first thing in the morning, after saying my farewells. 

The rift I opened up took me to a familiar place. I could feel the nostalgia – the memories resurfacing. As I stepped on the lush green grass, I couldn't help but smile. 

The alcove protected by the overhang and the cliffs around me had only changed a little. I could see more, bigger and more colourful fish in the lake. Nature seemed to have thrived here since the first day I found this place.

And now that I was more aware of my surroundings, I could feel the flow of magic here. No wonder I had survived thanks to this place back then when the giant horned lion nearly killed me. No wonder I had gotten two skills by stepping in this alcove. Though, I still didn't know what Crystal Sage did.
