Both Lucas and Sandra travelled back to the shelter with new goals. While there was a lot of uncertainty about her skill, there was a clear short-term goal in front of her—to get her ability to progress three more levels.
When they reached back to the shelter, Lucas first went to John to let him know all the things that had transpired before he decided to meet up with Sarah first.
When he entered the basement, which was their makeshift workshop, Lucas could hear the clanging sounds of metal hitting metal. While it may have been loud, when heard with patience, there was a melody to it.
Each 'CLANG' made from the hammer was after a specific period of time. There was no gap in between, even though the sounds were hard.
Lucas could tell that Sarah's whole body was so tired that even lifting that hammer should be a big task, but that was what made the situation even better.
'She's in the zone...' Lucas thought with a warm smile.
