4 Startled Parents & History (1/2)
Nora awoke from her cultivation to see two very startled parents in front of herself...
-
Nora's mom had followed after her daughter once she broke out of her statue-like trance. She had found her daughter in an unbreakable meditative trance and found her daughter to be violently sweating, twitching and struggling for air. Her attempts to awaken her daughter were completely ineffective so she rushed to get her husband. Although Nora's dad was equally startled he held his composure and rushed out of the house to get a cleric.
When the cleric arrived and saw Nora in such a precarious state he pulled out an old tome and cast a holy spell in attempts to heal her. His efforts proved useless and he left to consult his superiors. Leaving two very confused and startled parents anxiously staring at their daughter.
Over the next few hours, the cleric had yet to return. Until suddenly Nora stopped her violent twitching, the profuse sweating, and even her breathing calmed. The already shocked parents awaited with bated breath.
Seemingly returning to normal Nora calmly opened her eyes and found herself staring back at her two parents.
Nora's dad was the first to break the silence, ”Nora are you alright? Are you hurt? What just happened...” the string of questions was interrupted by Nora, ”Calm down,” noticing the genuine concern on their faces truly showed her how much they cared for her, ”everything is fine. I was simply cultivating”
The phrase 'cultivating' set Nora's mom off on her own string of questions, ”What were you cultivating? A disease? An egg?”
Nora thought to herself, 'Do they not know what cultivation is?' She decided that she would attempt to clarify. ”I was using mana to temper my body”
Seeming to make progress Nora's parents had some of their questions answered while many more questions arose.
”Where did you learn a Knight Technique?” Nora's dad questioned
A few things instantly clicked in Nora's head leading her to mentally ask some questions, 'So Knights are this worlds cultivators? If they are cultivators, what kind are they?'
