In my opinion, Agent Ninmah is truly doing something special. She’s collaborating with other teachers to create a curriculum and to teach EVOKE to students.

The second set of missions were released by Alchemy yesterday and Evoke agents have already stepped forward and accepted these objectives and have taken on the new quest.
