The Training Ground had fallen silent at some point.
Two intangible fighting spirits collided, leaving Ellin feeling slightly short of breath.
This was no physical pressure, but purely a clash of presence between two battle-hardened warriors. For Ellin, who had only experienced a single adventure in the wilderness not long ago, it was truly difficult to handle.
