Spiritual Training

Hours later, the atmosphere in the small cabin had shifted.

Selene sat in front of Vergil and Zuri, observing them with a more serious expression, leaving behind the confusing emotions that Sapphire had stirred within her.

The moment now was one of instruction, after all, Vergil had come here for that purpose. Vergil, eyes sharp and attentive, felt the importance of what he was about to learn. Zuri, on the other hand, though she appeared disinterested, remained restless, alternating between grumbling and shooting irritated glances, never losing the irreverence that defined her.

"Let's begin," Selene said, interlacing her fingers as she leaned forward. "Now that you two are officially bonded, it's time to understand what it means to have a Familiar and how this will affect you moving forward. This bond between you is not just a magical connection; it's something much deeper, almost spiritual."
