Years after his initial days on Glim-53, Electro still remained on his new home planet. At this time in our story, he had reached the age of thirty, and he had forgotten nearly everything about his old home, aside from various small memories. Electro loved this new planet much more than his old one, for he admired the peacefulness of it. From the amazing creatures that roamed it, to the happiness of the giant stone people, Electro loved his new planet very much. Not much had happened on Glim-53 in the recent years, and the only traveler who had come through was Zoyendar's old friend, Captain Jordin. When Captain Jordin would come every two years, Electro sometimes questioned if he should adventure the galaxy with him. While he thought about visiting where he once lived, he also knew that it would be very different than what he was used to, and it would be a completely new world. Electro yearned so to find his place in the universe, yet he also did not want to leave the home he so dearly loved. Ever since Electro was seven, and he had agreed to try his best to change the universe around him, Zoyendar had helped train him ever since that moment to become a noble warrior. Electro found his main weapon of choice to be two small tomahawk axes, and sometimes a small throwing knife or two. With these two axes, Electro constantly was taught by Zoyendar how to improve his form, and how to attack with the most force and power in each swing. While Zoyendar could not perfect what Electro did (because of his huge size), Electro was a rather quick learner when it came to formations. From a young man to the adult he was at this time, he almost never gave up with what he did. He also tried to find out who he was meant to be when he traveled outside of the village, but he was always brought back every other day for his training. He loved to fly to the other side of the planet, and have some alone time with himself. It was in these moments that he was at his happiest, yet he was always drug back to the main village due to his training. One day, Electro and Zoyendar were training inside of their open rectangle for training. The rectangle itself had some dummies scattered around it for attacking, and it had straw and cloth pieces to make more dummies if needed. Outside of the open rectangle were simply the tall trees, and lots of fog (the typical atmosphere of this planet). Inside the rectangle on this day, Electro was practicing yet another formation.
"Good Electro!" complemented grand master Zoyendar as the thirty-year-old Electro used his tomahawk axes to slice through various straw dummies. "Make sure to keep your arm bent throughout the move, otherwise you may break it from the impact!" Hearing this message again, Electro swung his axes with great force, and he sliced through the chest of the straw dummy one final time.
"There," said Electro, "I learned once again how to swing my axes. May I please go now, grand master? I had plans to hunt on the other side of the swamp for special rocks, and I need to fly over there quickly to be searching before it gets dark out. Our world is quickly rotating on its axis after all, and nighttime comes much quicker than we'd like it to" (at this point Electro had also learned how to fly, as that is a skill of all people from Phantoria).
"Now now Electro, we should not go around rushing your training. Training is a delicate process and requires many years to perfect. You still need to learn another fighting stance in case someone is attacking you from far away, perhaps with a Phantorian gun. Go along now, make yourself another straw dummy."
"Fine, but only one more, and that's it! I already know how to swing this dang axe, and I need to get my rocks tonight for a project I'm creating on my day off tomorrow." Electro then went over to the cloth and straw pile they had sitting around their training zone, and he started to wrap up another dummy.
"Hmm, you do have an adventurous mind Electro, but you can't always have what you want. It is our training day after all, and I believe you need to learn more than you think you do. Someday you will understand why, but for now you must trust I am doing the right thing." Zoyendar said this as he leaned on the handle of his one-sided long axe. "You have yet to learn how to feel your attacks, and you instead simply swing your heart away without putting passion into each and every swing. Remember that you can only ever preform what you have learned, for knowledge is the key to being the best you can be. Nobody in this world can simply preform and not learn beforehand. You must put emotion into your moves, and you must feel your inner power surge throughout you."
