After breakfast, Tarik returned to his duties. Lissana went back to look for her mother in the room but found her in the hallway, where Abril asked her, “Where were you, Lissana? I was worried when I didn't see you when I woke up."
“I was with Tarik, we had breakfast together."
“Next time, don't leave without saying anything, okay?"
“Yes, Mom."
“If you've already had breakfast, we should go by train. Does that sound good?"
“Yes, I already want to show Tarik what I can do, plus I want to become stronger so I can protect him."
“Protect him?"
“He said he would be my protector, so I'll do the same. That's why I have to become much stronger."
“That's right, my girl, you must become very strong."
Abril and Lissana trained all morning, then they both met with Maya, Cassian, and Uzziel. T
