Earth

Ning stepped through the portal and arrived on a mountaintop with trees everywhere. Both Black Halo and White Depth Field walked through the silver portal and arrived as well.

Ning brought out Saphandra who had made him promise to bring her out only after he had left being a hermit and went back to Earth.

"Did we leave?" she asked as soon as she came out. "We did, yahoo!" 

"You can tell?" Ning asked amusingly. 

"Of course," Saphandra said. "I can sense the Spiritual energy."

Ning's eyes narrowed. "You can sense wha—" his eyes moved away from where he was looking towards the empty space around him. 

"Holy Shit! There really is Spiritual energy here," Ning thought. 

"And Qi," Black Halo said. "I was assuming this world to not have any."

"Not in big amounts," Ning said. "There's Qi and Spiritual energy, but they barely make up anything. The energy that is available most is actually Mana."

"Is it?" Saphandra asked.
