Ellara watched Eltrys closely as he spoke, absorbing every word. She felt a pang of empathy at the sadness that crossed his face when he mentioned the previous leader, Haydee. It was clear that Polaris had endured its share of hardships, yet it remained a place of strength and resilience.

As Eltrys turned to the floral bush with large yellow daisy-like flowers, Ellara listened intently. "Arnica," she repeated softly, committing the name to memory. "I'm not familiar with this one." She watched as he demonstrated, taking a small amount of the plant and carefully preparing it. She mimicked his actions, chewing a small amount and then applying it gently to her bruises and sprains. Almost immediately, she felt a soothing sensation spread through her body, easing the aches from their spar.

"Thank you, Eltrys. Your knowledge is truly impressive," she said with genuine admiration. His next words, however, caught her off guard. "Are you inviting me to Polaris?" she asked, her voice tinged with surprise and curiosity.
