When Leo woke up, he was alone. He didn't know how much time had passed, or if Ly was still so bad. He was worried about her, so he tried to get up.

When he tried to stand up, he felt like if a thousand needles were piercing through all the muscles in his legs. He almost fell, but he was able to hold himself with the header of the bed. Then he got himself back into the bed, and sat in the border, with the legs hanging out of the border.

After some minutes, he tried again, and this time, he could at least hold his own weight. But his legs still weren’t strong enough to hold all the weight in one foot, so walking wasn’t an option. He decided to rest again, and try again after a few more minutes.

After a few more attempts, he managed to do enough steps to reach the bathroom… he needed to use it. When he was done, he wondered it Ly was in her room, but decided to not disturb her. He went to his bed, and laid on it, without anything to do, but thinking about that morning.

While thinking about the cave, he suddenly found himself with the spirit eye open. He looked at himself, and noticed how he actually couldn’t see his own spirit. Then he decided he could try to learn how to control the eye, but he didn’t know how to start, so he thought concentration would help. He closed his eyes, and noticed how he could still see some faint lights around even when it was dark in the room, and his eyes were closed. He moved the head around, noticing those lights were actually outside of his eyes, and so he deduced he was actually seeing things through the spirit. That gave him a clue, that maybe if he tried to just close that eye… if he tried to stop seeing those things, he could manage to actually close it.

After waiting a while with the eyes closed, trying, through every part of his mind, to tell the eye to close, he stopped seeing things. He wasn’t sure if the eye closed because of his orders, or it just closed out of boredom, but he was happy to at least have it closed.

He decided he could just practice again, so he tried to recall the moment when the spirit eye opened. He was thinking about the cave, about how they crawled inside. He remembered how pretty the mana crystals were, and how rare the red ones were. He saw Ly walking to where the one he found was, he saw how he walked near her and tried to raise her. At the moment his memories were about to touch her, a strange feeling appeared somewhere in his head. That was it… the trigger… the way to open the eye, and more. Suddenly, he found his own spirit outside of his body… he was seeing with the spirit eye, and his white spirit wasn’t inside his body anymore.

In that moment, he wanted to see, he wanted to move, and his spirit moved to where he thought… he was now inside Ly’s room.

He saw her… in her bed, apparently sleeping. He saw her blue spirit, with only a faint glow, almost imperceptible. He moved near her, to see more detail… and then he noticed something. She wasn’t whole. Small parts of her spirit were missing, like scars in a burned object. He wanted to heal her… he wished he could heal her… and her spirit started to glow in silver tones. He didn’t know what was he doing, but he did know he could trust his spirit. It felt like if he had done it before…

Spirit energy started to gather around him, just to become blue and move again to blend with Ly’s spirit. That process continued for a while, until she was whole again.

Relieved, Leo’s spirit moved back to his own body, and he felt the pain to be alive, to be back in his living body. He opened his eyes widely, together with a deep breath, and saw Ly’s father, Andur, looking at him with a strange expression on his eyes.

- I… did it… I fixed her spirit.

- How? No one taught you medical magic yet… right?

- I don’t know… I just did, I think… I hope.

- He is right - said a voice coming from outside of the room -. Her spirit is fine now.

- That… is… good - Leo’s words became silent as he was falling asleep again -.

- I don’t understand… - said Andur while glancing from Leo to the other person - this boy isn’t a silver spirit, how could he heal her like that?

- I don’t know... When he moved back to his body, I think I saw a white light, but I could have confused it... I have never heard of the existence of white in the color of the spirit.

- This is really weird. When I took them out of that cave, everything was too bright, be he seemed to have a blue glow… we will have to investigate more… could you check the medical logs from the library someday? I don’t want to disturb you if you are too busy, but I’m not an expert in that field, and you have more chances to find something than me.

- I will try… It’s in times like this when I miss my sister more. Alana was so good at healing… it’s sad she had to get that disease in the best moment of her life.

- Yeah. But let’s leave that in the past, and focus on the part of history that could make things clear now. I will stay here for a while until they both recover, and then we will meet again.

- Okay. If I find something important before then, I know how to contact you.

- Go now, Raul, I’m sure there’s other people that needs your assistance.

- Now that you mention it… I had a few visits scheduled, and the first one should have already started. See you…

With that, Raul activated his spirit eye and disappeared from the room.
