Mole quickly wakes up takes his vest and quickly exit his room and the house and meet with Zephyr outside his house ."Put it on "says zephr.Mole puts the vest on and suddenly collapse to the ground "aaaah whats going on why is it heavy all of the sudden ?" Mole struggle to stand up " Its weight vest it gets heavier as you get stronger. Now lets move and exit the village i wont train you here". Mole finally stands up and start moving while he struggle across the village and finally they reach the exit and face east.

"I want you to start running and I'll tell you where to stop where we reach our destination " says Zephr. Mole with no complain he starts to run slowly zephr joins him but he was floating on his stick .3 hours of straight running Mole collapses and Zephr gives him water and tell him we are near our destination (They were at a place where its desert like and the ground was dry and hot ) "lets exit this desert and will be there" Mole stands up and starts running. An hour later he arrives at place filled with sands that make mountain behind the place the were green plants and water spreading as far as the eye can see. "Its beautiful can you see?" Mole nods while he agree. Zephr gives Mole a horn of water ."You will train here on the sandy mountains and with time you will reach the green lands for now your not ready " .

Zephr descend from his stick and hold it tight and start gritting his teeth and strikes the sand mountain next to him and all the sand infront of him is blown away and only solid ground is left . Zephr commands the solid ground to arise and form a mountain with stairs . " You will do 10 laps here going up and down then will take a break and eat " The already exosted Mole start running up and down the long and tall mountain.

(the stairs go about 80 feet in height )Mole struggles as he keeps hes training going while Zephr observes him from the top .Mole finshes after a hole 2 hours running up and down and collapsing from fatigue and he finally rest with Zephr.
