Scenario 25

As Dark leads the group towards Balthazar's gym, he comes to an immediate halt and looks behind him.

"Before we enter those doors I must warn you. Balthazar isn't a normal professor, his training is dangerous, passing out is the least of your worries in this gym. You should be worried about dying, if any of you are getting cold feet you can leave now.

Dark looks at everyone's determined face, and Ashlynn's usual "Shut and go on with it" expression and he grins as he opens the doors. Balthazar is in the center, meditating while levitating. Even when he sits his incredible size overwhelms Dark, as if he's staring at a boulder of a man. He puts his fingers towards his lips to make sure everyone stays quiet, as they approach Balthazar.

"I brought the students like you asked."

Balthazar remains silent, eyes closed, and levitating as if Dark wasn't there.

"I guess we wait."
