Tudeki had eventually woken up from his coma. He spent almost two days in unconsiousness. Tudeki and Jopia have started their training. Jopia shows much promise.
Tudeki shows signs of exhaustion.
Jopia: "Are you alright??!"
Tudeki: "Yes, I just need some rest."
Jopia relaxes while his aunt makes a meal for the two of them, while Tudeki sleeps.
Jopia: "Aunt Thera, do you think Tudeki will be alright?"
Thera: "He's incredibly strong, not even your father could withstand the things this man can, and he was a world class gladiator."
Jopia: "I've seen him do amazing things."
Thera: "Don't worry about your friend, he'll be back to normal soon."
Jopia: "I hope so."
Tudeki: *wakes up* "Don't worry about me Jopia. I've sensed something going on with the others... If only I hadn't wasted my energy! We could be there helping them!"
Jopia: "I hope they come out alright."
Tudeki: "They will. I would not be much help to them right now anyways."
Jopia: "How long until we make our quest back?"
Tudeki: "I'm not sure... you still need more training, and I need to regain my energy."
Thera: "Here's lunch." *hands Tudeki, and Jopia bowls of soup*
Tudeki: "You're a great cook, Thera."
Thera: "Thank you."
Jopia:
Tudeki: "We'll rest a while longer, then it's back to training for you."
