Footsteps echoed in the long corridor, lit only by the never‑ending crimson skies. Lidien slowly walked, heading to his room… watching his shadow against the red hue, mirroring his now dark eyes.
'It seems I can't do everything alone…'
As his steps stopped in front of his room door, it was immediately opened by Xyon, beaming with a smile.
"Where is Alva?"
Lidien scanned his large room before taking a seat at the desk, where books were piled up… the books Nyomi had forgotten to return to the Knowledge Spire.
Xyon stood beside Lidien, bowing slightly.
"Alva was at the Training Hall, Master."
Lidien glanced at him, a gentle smile touching his face.
"Why didn't you stay with her?"
Xyon didn't move from his position, nor raise his head, but simply continued to bow.
"Because I'm your servant, Master. I should stay with you…"
Lidien smirked, a muffled laugh escaping him.
