"I'm finally done, phew! Thank you for the help so far, Lady Verdant," I said, as I greeted the Druids again. "Are things ready?"
"Yes, most things are completely ready now," nodded Lady Verdant. "It seems you've grown… very strong. I can feel it within you, Planta. Well done."
"Ah, yes, I've used quite a lot of things, not everything, but indeed a lot," I nodded. "I've still saved some more for later, whenever we truly need more strength, to adapt to the threat we're facing."
"A smart choice," said Lady Verdant. "Now then, I suppose you'll be on your way. When is this attack starting?"
"We're doing this at midnight," I said. "So there's still some more hours to go, but it won't be too long, so be on your toes for now, Lady Verdant."
"What a strange saying! What does that mean?" she wondered innocently.
"It means that you need to be wary," the Great Spirit said.
"Oh, very well!" Lady Verdant nodded.
