"What is the purpose of our meeting today?" Azazel asked the breathless Calista who had successfully made it to his side. She was busy catching her breath since she had to sprint all the way here.
She raised a finger, indicating he should give her a minute to recover before answering him.
Azazel had long legs, so he covered more strides than her. He was staring at her like someone who found her act of breathing unstable, and it was since he made her run all the way to meet up with him.
"You...you were saying?" Calista found her voice at the end, but Azazel said nothing, as though he was giving her more time to catch her breath before speaking.
"I was saying, we came here to talk more about the sword, and we're here to figure out why the dark forest is still dark. We should stick to the reason why we're here and nothing else, do you understand?"
