章 242: Leaving The Village

Elandor smiled, wiping the sweat from his brow. "Thank you, Elder Thoran. I am committed to protecting our village and ensuring that we are prepared for whatever may come."

Thoran nodded, his expression serious. "Elandor, I think it is time you leave the village for bigger cities. I think this village is holding you back."

Elandor blinked, surprised by Thoran's statement. "Leave the village? Why do you say that, Elder Thoran?"

Thoran sighed, placing a hand on Elandor's shoulder. "You have talents and abilities that are beyond what any of us could have imagined. Our village, though grateful for your protection, is too small for someone of your talents. Staying here may hinder your growth. In the bigger cities, you would find more opportunities to learn, to grow, and to face challenges that will push you even further."
