Six more days had passed.
Almost all our practical exams were over.
All but one — the Spirit Realm Simulation.
Since the whole purpose of that class was to prepare Cadets for the harrowing threats lurking in the Spirit Realm, it made sense that our final exam would take place inside it.
Yes.
Inside the actual Spirit Realm.
Not a simulation dome.
And naturally, our examiner would be Selene Valkryn.
Tomorrow morning, she'd take us back to her Sanctuary. Once there, we'd get a full day to rest before she'd assign us our objectives.
We wouldn't be thrown into untamed wilds. Not with her around — and not with the exam happening in the bounds of her own Sanctuary. There wouldn't be any real dangers.
Of course, that didn't mean the exam would be easy.
Or safe.
It would still be difficult. Still dangerous.
...But that was tomorrow. There was still some time for it.
