"Okay, [Name], since Tok Kasa only said to move this boulder," you said, now in front of the massive rock and glaring at it. "Then I will move it!"

You grunted as you tried to push the boulder with force, but you failed miserably, your feet sliding back and causing you to fall face flat onto the ground.

You let out a muffled groan with your face still on the ground, then you looked to the side before fixing yourself to sit up and let out a defeated sigh.

"I want what Oboi and Gopal are having," you grumbled, staring at the rock in front of you. "I don't want to move a boulder."

"I want action! I want to learn accuracy! I want to learn how to dodge and hit those plates! Not this!" you whined, pulling your hair in frustration.

You had been in this place for hours, trying to figure out how to move this boulder. You've already tried multiple things like putting a huge stick under it and jumping on it, hoping it'll budge, or trying your best to make a huge shield that'll cover it up so you can levitate it.

"You want a lot, huh?" You heard a feminine voice from behind you, causing you to get goosebumps. You stood up quickly, whipping your head around to face the owner of the voice.

You saw a glowing bird-like creature, shocking you.

"Don't tell me you can talk?" you asked the bird.

The bird-like creature tilted her head. "Of course I can talk," she replied, her voice surprisingly clear and articulate for a creature of her kind. "And you're not Farah."

Her words made you startle again at the mention of the familiar name.

"Wait, Farah? You know her?" you asked, your curiosity piqued.

"Yes. She's that old alien's student," she explained. "She and Hang Kasa were the only people to ever go in this place to train."

"This place hasn't been used in years."

You furrowed your brows. "Hey, you're being very disrespectful to your elders, you know."

The bird-like creature shrugged her feathery shoulders. "I am much older than Hang Kasa, for I have lived for 200 years."

You blinked, surprised by this. "200 years? That's... impressive."

The creature nodded. "Anyway, I should probably introduce myself. I am an Adarna bird. I don't have a name, so you may call me Adarna."

You paused, "Adarna? I've...never heard or read about your kind existing here on Planet Quabaq before."

The creature's eyes gleamed with interest. "Well, of course, my kind don't typically interact with other species. We only emerge at nighttime and in secluded areas where few dare to venture."
