By the fluorescent fields of the Sub-human Town, an old-looking log cabin stood in silence.
A low fence encircled the cabin. At that moment, several figures were lurking furtively in the shadows of the fence, poking their heads out to cautiously peer into the small yard.
In the neat little yard, Yano sat cross-legged with his eyes shut tight. His breathing was long and steady, his sturdy chest rising and falling gently. An indescribable air of tranquility seemed to envelop him.
Behind the fence, one of the shadows—a distinctly more petite figure—spoke in a hushed, questioning tone. "How strange. What's he doing just sitting there without moving? Is he meditating? I've never seen a Warrior train like this."
A slightly sturdier figure beside her hesitated before replying, a note of uncertainty in his voice, "I heard Kane mention that he's supposed to be taking part in the Knight Trial and the Shadow Trial soon. He's probably preparing for them right now."
