I awaken to the complete darkness in front of me and groan, I'm upside down hanging from the pole, I look up to see the faint outline of the rope my feet are attached to. In an attempt to get my bearings I think of a Titanium sword and thankfully it appears in my right hand, I cut the rope holding me up and I hit the ground headfirst, I let out another groan, stand up and walk into the training facility, clutching my head. I stand in the middle of the cold dark room and study my still faintly glowing improved necklace, I strain to think of something- anything associated with weaponry and then I find it- Armour, I concentrated on the thought and I felt a reasonable amount of weight added to my shoulders, I look down to see a full set of Greek armour and I closely study the suit and realise it's made of Tungsten- the strongest pure metal known to man, I then begin to study the golden shield strapped to my left arm- as I fight with my right usually, and almost immediately notice the metal gorgon head replica raised on the shield, after a closer inspection I came to the conclusion that this was a replica of the 'Aegis' - a shield created by Athena made of the skin of the gorgon Medusa after Perseus had slain her. I glance at my watch and see the time, absolutely appalled my watch (on its digital setting) held, 'am1:08 Sunday October 8th 2023', after the quick realisation that I don't have time to figure out what else the necklace does- if it even does anything else at all. I swiftly and quietly make my way back to the accommodation building ready for a very tiring day in 5 hours.
