We’re led out of the small building one at a time, and taken to a separate area of the barracks. Here, there is a stone building without any windows, and only one heavily guarded door.

“Dominik!” I yell, rushing over and tackling him to the ground in an embrace. He wraps his arms around me, hugging me tightly against him.
