As the dust settled and the echoes of battle faded into the night, Ego and Master Elric stood triumphant, their bond stronger than ever. Though the road ahead would be fraught with danger and uncertainty, they knew that as long as they stood together, they could face whatever challenges lay ahead.
The next day dawned with a soft glow filtering through the windows of Ego's dormitory. He awoke to the gentle chirping of birds outside, a stark contrast to the chaos of the previous night's battle. Stretching his limbs, he sat up in bed and rubbed the sleep from his eyes.
With a yawn, Ego swung his legs over the edge of the bed and rose to his feet. The events of the previous night still weighed heavily on his mind, but he pushed aside his worries, focusing instead on the tasks that lay ahead.
