"Are you heading back to your room?" Aurel asked, trying to shift the conversation in a different direction. When Mikael nodded, she happily suggested, "I am heading the same way. Let's walk together!"

"Yep!" Aurel nodded enthusiastically. "It's better to be safe than sorry, right?"

As her words registered in Mikael's mind, his thoughts drifted to Talon, who had been his loyal friend and knight for years.
