"This …" Elred stared at the bright yellow light in his hand in shock and confusion.
He was holding an earth spark of impeccable quality, far more pure than the one Arax fed to Lee – at least that was how Lee felt. Of course, now, after decades of cultivating, his earth spark had evolved and could actually be somewhat compared to the one Elred held, but that was not the point. Elred acted as if this was supposed to be the one the old god had, but Lee had held the white spark in his hand and knew this wasn't it.
"Everyone!" Elred was either a great actor, or actually got anxious, "Gather up! I was certain I put the old god's spark in my belt, but apparently there's been a mix-up. Vaerin isn't with us anymore, so to not cause any misunderstandings, please search me. Also, just in case, search Lee. I've been carrying him the whole time and technically he had the opportunity to steal it."
