'Alright, let's do this...' thought Will, standing with his eyes closed and his spadroons in his hands as the hexagonal panels lining the hemispherical training room produced a faint whirring sound. Moments later, the dome's interior resembled the early morning twilight, a mix of orange and purple with flecks of stars directly overhead. At the same time, tall grass erupted from beneath his feet, spreading outward like a brush fire before an entire forest appeared in his surroundings.

The result was an eerie, ethereal pale that hung over Will and his surroundings, the sounds of his breathing and the gentle rustling of leaves, stirred by an artificial breeze, the only opposition to the setting's serenity.
