Chapter 93: Settling into the Dormitory

"For the last time, I wasn't trying to peek!" Toby's voice echoed through their dorm room.

"It was all his fault!" He jabbed a finger at Levi, who sat cross-legged on his bed, barely containing his amusement.

"Sure, blame the guy who was just trying to help," Levi said, dodging the pillow Toby threw at him.

From his desk, Ryn glanced up from his thick leather-bound book. "You two are going to get us all in trouble before classes even start."

Axel, their fourth roommate, leaned against the wall, his muscular arms crossed. At six-feet-tall with broad shoulders, he made their spacious room feel smaller. "Let them fight it out. Better now than during training."

The room itself was well-furnished – four beds, each with its own desk and wardrobe, arranged around a central common area. Large windows offered a view of the academy grounds, where students still hurried about, settling into their new lives.
