The High General of the Forest clan waved his hands and the vines on the ground disappeared.

"The places and situations you all had in your altered states were basically represented what you feared the most. In the battlefield, our innate powers are not infinite just like our bodies. Our abilities are as strong as our mind, body and emotions are. Thus, we cannot rely solely on our powers. Hand to hand combat and learning to use any weapons are essential. And, one of the basic weapons we all have in common is our minds. A serene mind in times of turbulence is the greatest weapon that we can willed."

The High General of the Forest clan had everyone's attention.

"Among all of you, it was only the king of the Aeolian clan who figured what was going and controlled his situation." The High General of the Forest clan began to say. "Henry uses his hands to control the wind and the sky while his feet give him Mercury-like ability of speed. Binding his hands, wrists and ankles made his powers useless. However, he assessed the situation and realized what was going on, he focused his thoughts on lowering his heart rate and breathing to almost death like-state to deceive the scorpions."

"So, are you saying that I should learn to summon the wind and the sky even if my hands are bound and learn to run while my feet are tied?" The child king of the Aeolian asked.

The High General of the Forest clan replied. "To some extent, yes."

"That's a tall order." The prince of the Phoenix clan doubtfully said.

"And why is that?" Oisin asked.

"Because, there are something that are just impossible to do on a given circumstance." Helios reasoned.

"Improbable maybe but never impossible." The High General of the Forestclan said. "It is only impossible if you think it is. Impossibility is anabsolute certainty while improbability is something that less like to happenbut could happen."
