In the darkness of the cave system the members of the team rested. The ferret, Farrah and the weasel, who called himself Wendel watched their newly born cub, who was named Warrent. Farrah took down a neck ornament from her neck, which decorated her before with the other one, though the others didn't notice that she has two with her. It was very similar to Rocky's. A neck ornament braided from tendrils with a flower-like bell on it. Farrah put it around her cub's neck and as she put it on completely, the ornament became smaller, so Warrent can wear it comfortibly.
In the meantime the others encircled Rocky to ask about what happened the other day. Aisha began the questioning. Altough she was there for a long time and in theory she knew some parts of this world, it was still hard for her to believe certain things.
-"So...you said that you'll take care of our safety against Thunderbird. How did you exactly accomplish that? What did you do that her thunderbolts didn't hurt us?"
-"Simple. I created a protecting shield around you and because of that, to be quite frank, I passed out." -He answered weakly. He didn't recovered completely yet after what happened.
-"Despite that, how did you survive that lightning?" -Dion asked.
-"Well...I'm immune to fire and lightning...sorta."
-"One, since when can ya use magic? Two, why didn't ya told us sooner?" -Kira asked.
-"Well...I didn't know that...that you're trustworthy or not. I didn't want you to see me differently because of my powers." -He admitted.
-"That's understandable." -Aisha said. -"After all, you didn't know us, you couldn't have possibly know how we would react."
-"I...listen...I don't want to talk about this right, let's just...leave it at this, for now."
-"Of course, you don't have to talk about this." -Dion said and went to Ophelia who helped Warrent's parents.
-"What happened to your friend?" -Ophelia asked him.
-"He...doesn't want to talk about it yet, he needs time. But it's sure that without him, we wouldn't be here now."
-"He saved us."
-"Exactly."
While they talked, Aisha and Kira tried to find out how to collect the next ingredient. On the list this stood: Sky cloud from the east.
It was hard enough to collect cloud, let alone from a place they don't even know where it is.
-"Great. What now?" -Kira asked and strongly concentrated to think about a solution.
-"If every ingredient has something to do with an elemental, then we could use this as a base. If my calculations are right, there is only one left: the air elemental." -Aisha said.
-"Yes, but technically, they can appear wherever air is present."
-"Where do they live usually?"
-"In the Sky Realm, but one, not everybody can enter there. Two, the galaxy elemental appeared in the Mountain Realm, yet they're from the sky too."
-"It's worth a try. Why can't anybody just enter there?"
-"That's where the ascended creatures live, that place is the closest to the gods and that's where the most temples and sanctuaries are. Whoever lives there has to follow strict rules and without a reason not a single earthling can step in there."
-"Can't we...lure them out somehow?"
-"Elementals only appear when they feel they have to."
-"Then that is indeed going to be hard." -Aisha fell in thought.
