Zaro concentrated heavily on the core and watched as his essence surrounded the core and was slowly breaking it down. Unawoken cores looked like they were detailed orbs of glass with a light glow to them.

When Zaro was forming the pill this glow was getting brighter and brighter and continued shrinking until it was completed. Since it was just a regular core, Zaro finished creating the pill in a mere thirty minutes and then looked up at the woman when he was done.

The woman's jaw was wide open and just stared in disbelief at the pill and then at Zaro the whole time. For the entire thirty minutes, she was quietly looking at the process while shaking slightly in fear.

”How! How did you do that?! Just how?!” she couldn't help but cry out in disbelief.

”Even my race cannot create a pill of this quality and yet a wolf could do it perfectly fine! Wolf, travel with me! I will allow you to consume all of the cores that we find as long as you somehow teach me to do this!”

Zaro thought for a moment and then figured that this would be an extremely good idea! If he could gain an ally as strong as this, who knows what they could accomplish together! Thus he nodded his head and wagged his tail once more but with more excitement this time.

”Wonderful! Please show me how you managed to figure these things out... even though I have spent a month an a lot of cores trying to do the technique in this scroll it just didn't work out!”

Zaro nodded his head, turned around and began running towards the gap in the cave which he found the scroll. The woman was dumbstruck and followed close behind Zaro which was quite amazing as he was a wolf!

”Wolf hold on, please!”

Zaro led her through the gap inside the cave and then into the room where he found the first scroll and then sat down waiting to see her response. The woman knelt down and read the scroll realizing that he wanted to show her that she was reading the wrong version causing her to blush a little.

”Turns out I was reading the wrong scroll the whole time... thank you, my name is Lidya, a member of the Elatus.”

”Zaro,” he said even though he knew she wouldn't know what he meant but she had understood that he tried saying his name.
