Morning arrived quicker than anticipated, and Lexine dragged her body out of the bed earlier than she was used to waking up. She had not managed to sleep a wink and instead found herself staying up the whole night and staring at the ceiling. It was just close to three months ago when she had no plans of staying at the academy for more than a month, and instead wanted to go back home to her mother.
Now, all she wanted was to find the person who had killed her mother, and just maybe, return the favor. Still, she had no idea how on earth she was going to go around that. After all, there was the fact that she was still too weak. There was also the fact that she was still a student in the academy.
She splashed ice cold water on her face, removing all traces of sleep that she had. Her hair was pulled up in a high bun, and she took out a pair of running clothes from her walking wardrobe.
