Eye contact is one of the primary tactics of flirtation. Brief glances can show your attraction and interest in another person. You can try looking across the room during a meeting or glancing across the table at lunch. Meet their eyes briefly before glancing down and away. Smiling is an open and friendly act that invites people to interact with you. In fact, smiling may be one of the best ways to meet new people and start new relationships. As your coworker passes your desk, glance up briefly and smile. If you catch their eye in a meeting, give them a quick grin. Don’t linger. A small smile is all it takes. When you know they are looking at you, try to casually flip your hair to show off your neck. This shows the curve of your neck while drawing attention to your hair. This is a casual but flirty move that makes it seem as though you are not deliberately trying to catch their attention. Leaning or orienting yourself towards another person signals that you are interested in them. You can practice this while working on a project with your coworker. Lean over the desk to point out something. Reach out so that your arm is crossing their body without touching them. If you’re working on a shared computer, shift your body so that your feet and shoulders are tilted towards them. While gently touching someone is often a form of flirting, it can get you in trouble in the workplace. Try to use body language that does not involve physical contact. If your touching is unwanted, you can get in trouble for harassment.

Summary: Make eye contact. Smile. Show off your neck. Lean over their desk. Avoid touching.


If you're building an aviary for small birds, you have 6 frame pieces 24 inches (61 cm) in height and 20 inches (51 cm) in width. Lay them onto a flat surface horizontally next to each other to prepare for attachment. Make sure the height and width of each assembled frame piece are straight and parallel to the height and width of the other frames pieces. After attaching the assembled frame pieces using plumber's tape, connect them to each other using 4 screws applied left and right from the corners of the top length pieces—2 on each side parallel to the plumber's tape—and the same amount through the bottom corners of the length pieces. Keep each pair 0.5 inch (1.3 cm) apart from the other, and the screw closest to the perimeter the same length from it. Double-check the alignment of your frame and adjust it as necessary before drilling in the screws. For example, if the top-right corner of a frame piece is a bit crooked, remove the plumber's tape, realign it, and fasten it again. Make sure that each side of the aviary except the bottom has a corresponding wire piece. For example, an aviary for small birds made from 6 frame pieces will need six pieces of mesh at least 24 by 20 inches (61 cm × 51 cm) in size. Leave 2 to 3 inches (5.1 to 7.6 cm) of extra wire mesh in case you make a mistake. Use a staple gun along the entire perimeter of each rectangular frame piece. Space each staple out by about 2 to 3 inches (5.1 to 7.6 cm). If you make a mistake, remove the staple with a flathead screwdriver or office-style staple remover. Use your wire cutters to cut a door opening large enough to fit through—about 84 inches (210 cm) should do. Now, measure the opening and cut a piece of wire mesh slightly larger. Remember that you're going to be entering the cage to clean, so always give yourself more room rather than less. Hold the door over the opening in the wire mesh, taking care to make sure the extra mesh is equal on all sides of the door. Now, wrap electrical ties or cage clips around the perimeter of the door and use them to fasten it to the cage. Fasten the ties or clips tight enough that there are no openings between the door and cage that your birds can escape from. Although you can create a concrete base for your aviary, this requires much more work and is only recommended for larger outdoor aviaries that require a strong foundation. For standard outdoor aviaries, attach a wire mesh to the bottom using a staple gun. Afterward, place gravel or sand on top of it. Don't skip the floor for outdoor aviaries, especially if there are predators in your area.

Summary: Align your assembled frame pieces flat on the floor beside each other. Connect each assembled frame piece using eight 4 inch (10 cm) screws. Cut your wire mesh to size using tin snips. Attach the wire mesh using a staple gun. Cut an opening into the front side of the cage's wire mesh for a door. Attach the door to the cage using electrical ties or cage clips. Create a floor for outdoor aviaries.


After your battle, the Captain will tell you to approach Reona. She will tell you about the runes and principles, and then ask you to read each bookcase.  Open the books Runes and Rune Knights, The Principles of Runes, and The Making and Use of Runes. You may or may not read its contents, but it’s advisable to take your time and read it all since it's related to your future class. Once you're done, talk to Reona again. She will mention that she's going to send you to the Sage Serpeone in Ash Vacuum for your next exam. Tell her that you're prepared to be warped in Ash Vacuum. After teleporting into Ash Vacuum, Sage Serpeone will be standing right next to you. Talk to the NPC to be given another battle exam, but this time, you must travel to Niflheim to kill the monsters. You can get to Niflheim's first field if you enter a portal from Umbala.  You need to kill 10 Dullahans, 10 Disguises, 10 Quves, and 10 Heirozoist. They're not difficult to kill with your current level. After killing the 40 monsters, return to Ash Vacuum and speak with the Sage once more. After her dialogue, choose “I've gathered enough energy.” The Sage will teleport you back to the Rune Knight meeting area for the next step.

Summary: Talk to Rune Knight Reona. Go to Niflheim.


Doing a split can appear deceptively simple. In actuality, this move requires a high level of flexibility in multiple muscle groups. The most important of these are the hamstrings and dorsal hip muscles (also called iliopsoas), however, stretching a wide range of lower-body muscles will ensure greater overall flexibility, lessening your risk of discomfort, pain, or injury. Additionally, this comprehensive stretching regimen prepares you to do both types of basic split - side splits and front splits. Besides the hamstrings and hip muscles, try to add stretches for as many of the following muscles as possible to your fitness routine:  Lower back (lumbar region) Buttocks (glutes) Groin (especially valuable for side splits) Calves Quadriceps The stretching recommendations included the following steps in this section will target many of these secondary muscles. However, if desired, you may substitute your own preferred stretches. This stretch targets your hip muscles. Begin as if you were doing an ordinary lunge exercise - plant one foot forward and lower yourself down to the ground by bending your front leg and sliding your back leg back until your shin lies on the ground. When you've reached the floor, put your hands on your hips and gradually shift your weight forward, keeping your back straight. Continue until you begin to feel the stretch in the top of the thigh where it meets the hip. Hold for 20-30 seconds, then return to your starting position and switch to your other leg. Repeat several times.
Summary: Know the muscles you need to stretch. Do a lunge stretch.
