Ana chuckled. "They've all finished their training and gone ahead."
"How long have we been here?"
Ana shrugged. "Who knows, time flows so strangely in this place, and it doesn't seem to affect us as if time is moving while we stand still. I went down the mountain, and it seems a little over a month had passed," Ana informed.
"Did you contact those outside? Do you know how Estia and Lumina are doing?" Xasha asked in a panic. If they had disappeared for an entire month with no word, those back in Estia must be dying of worry.
"Don't worry," Ana reassured. "Ink is there, nothing will happen whether or not we are there, and if it does, he will handle it. Moreover, we need you to build us another airship to get out of here."
