"Uhm... Who is that?" Billy asked. Though he was just asking, his hand was already resting on his sword, ready to draw it at any moment.
"I'm not entirely sure. But... It seems he is the original inhabitant of this structure," Adrius replied.
"You said this place was empty, didn't you?"
"Like I said, what you said is indeed happening, and these strange occurrences are certainly because of it."
"What should we do now?" Adrien asked.
Adrius was silent for a moment. His forehead creased into a frown. "If he intended to attack us, he would have done it already."
"You're right. That thing has seen us," Billy commented.
"So why is he just standing there? Staring at us?" asked Erend.
"I'm not sure. I'll try to ask him." Adrius began to step slowly towards the figure. The torchlight from his hands appeared calm. Somehow, despite the circumstances, he did not seem afraid.
"What should we do, Captain?" Billy asked, looking at Adrien.
