Ryuken's individual session with Vane was on the second day.
He came to the inner sanctum in the morning after Iron Root, which Vane had spent an hour on while Ryuken watched from somewhere and said nothing. The hour ended. He told Vane to sit. Vane sat.
"Show me the Argent Horizon. All three forms, full output."
Vane ran them.
The inner sanctum was large enough for the full extension of the Falling Star and the ceiling was high enough that the apex of the drill-jump cleared it by a meter. He ran all three at Sentinel-rank output with Heaven Gate as the base condition, which meant the intent and mechanics arrived simultaneously on every strike, the spear not a tool he was directing but a system he was running.
Ryuken watched without interrupting.
