"The coalition has information about your bloodline," Ryota continued, apparently deciding to move past the hissing incident. "The Kael line maintained a training facility in a remote location, heavily warded, designed for wardens to develop abilities in isolation."
"Where?" Azryth asked.
"Aleutian Islands, Alaska. Middle of nowhere, accessible only by boat or plane, weather conditions make it naturally defensive."
I processed that. "You want us to go train."
"I want you to have options. The Equilibrium Emissary specifically targeted you and said you shouldn't exist. If more come, you'll need every advantage."
He wasn't wrong.
"How do we get there?" I asked.
"Coalition is arranging transport. Boat from Seattle to Dutch Harbor, then smaller vessel to the island. Three days travel time."
"Three days?" I looked at Azryth. "We could just portal there in minutes."
Azryth's expression shifted, and I felt through the binding what he'd already discovered.
The key was gone.
