Within the helmet’s simulation fields, Sorion trained relentlessly.

He learned to move like the Ryautjan hunters — swift, silent, lethal.

He practiced the Sixteen Attack Forms of the Spider Prince:

The Pounce of a Thousand Fangs

The Web of Shattered Gravity

The Silken Noose

The Fang Dive and more.

Each simulation brought him closer to his true form — part man, part myth.

When he slept, he no longer dreamed. He wove.
