Gravis still looked at them with imposing eyes. Though, it felt weird to him, since he had to look up. "If you complete one request of mine, I shall grant you one wish," he declared.

Sarah looked worriedly at the others. "Earth Spirit, what request should we complete for you?" She asked worriedly.
