The beginning of the day finds everyone busy with the final preparations for the important mission. Surora sharpens her sword, while Iurlina searches for her magic book. Andres wipes the dust off his magic staff, and Bordeus trains by hitting a punching bag. Shan oversees all of this from the rooftop of a tower, making sure everything is in order. Fhiorr helps the vastralionians with transporting sacks of food.
Shan: (The final preparations, and we can leave. Hmm? The princess? She seems to be looking for someone.) - he gets down from the roof and walks towards Adrisa.
Adrisa: Where could Shan be? Oh...
Shan: I'm right behind you.
Adrisa: What a beautiful dream, to have Shan behind me! - she says, embarrassed but happy, without realizing that Shan is right there.
Shan: Aah... I'm right here, it's not a dream.
Adrisa begins to realize that Shan is indeed behind her and turns towards him, embarrassed and sweating from emotions.
Adrisa: AAAAHH! - she faints from the overwhelming emotions.
Shan: Princess! - he rushes to catch her.
Now, Adrisa is in Shan's arms.
Shan: Princess, are you alright?
But Adrisa is lost in her wonderful imaginary world, alongside Shan and children. Meanwhile, Fhiorr finishes his work and, on his way, sees Shan and the princess in his arms. Jealousy and anger overwhelm Fhiorr, transforming him into a demon thirsty for Shan's blood.
Fhiorr: (I'll kill him!) - he heads towards them, drawing his sword, ready to cut off Shan's head.
He approaches, and suddenly, Shan turns his gaze towards him.
Shan: Please, bring water, the princess is unwell!
Hearing this, Fhiorr sheathes his sword and quickly runs to bring water.
After Fhiorr brings the water, Shan helps Adrisa to recover. Fhiorr, still overwhelmed by conflicting emotions, tries to remain calm.
Fhiorr: I brought the water. How is she feeling?
Shan: Thank you, Fhiorr. I hope she recovers quickly. She just seems overwhelmed by emotions.
Adrisa, gradually regaining consciousness, opens her eyes and sees Shan beside her, smiling gently.
Adrisa: Shan... Thank you...
Shan: Be glad you're okay. We need to make sure you're ready for the mission.
Adrisa: Yes... I'm sorry for all the fuss.
Shan: It's nothing. The important thing is that you're fine now.
Fhiorr: (I need to control my jealousy. Shan is my friend, and we need to help each other.) - Fhiorr tells himself, trying to calm his emotions.
As the preparations continue, the group gathers to discuss the final details of the mission. Adrisa, still a bit embarrassed but determined, regains her confidence.
Andres: Is everyone ready? Do we have everything we need?
Iurlina: Yes, I found the magic book. We're ready.
Surora: The sword is well-sharpened. I'm ready for anything.
Bordeus: The punching bag has nothing left to say. I'm ready to fight.
Shan: Good. Let's go, we have an important mission to accomplish.
Fhiorr: I'm ready. Let's set off.
Shan removes the scarf from his Divine Eye, leaving everyone, except Fhiorr, amazed by his special eye. He forms a huge portal, and the entire group, including the carriage, passes through it. Fhiorr counts everyone.
