Plot[]

Lloyd and Arin recep to Euphrasia about them awakening the Arc Dragon of Focus and guiding it to defeat Thunderfang, which angered half of the Council of Sources. When they ask her how she got to the Whispering Wood, she reveals she was in the Cloud Kingdom when her Elemental Powers started going haywire.
