Third Person's POV
The moonlight bathed the castle garden in a serene glow as the young lad and Alex, walked back towards the castle. The silence between them was filled with a shared understanding, an unspoken bond that had grown stronger through their recent conversation.
As they reached the young lad's chamber, Alex guided his son inside, his firm yet gentle hand on the young lad's shoulder. The room was quiet and dimly lit by a single candle on the bedside table. The soft rustling of the curtains was the only sound, creating a peaceful ambiance.
"Rai, you need to rest," Alex said, his voice filled with fatherly concern. "You've done much for the world, and your strength is needed for the challenges ahead."
The young lad nodded, feeling the weight of his recent adventures settle into his bones. He climbed into bed, and Alex sat in a chair next to him, a comforting presence in the dim light.
