She clutched the backpack on her shoulders as she took one last look at her room before she closed the door behind her with a sigh.
The corridor was lit with blazing candles by the side as she moved down with quiet footsteps, not wanting to disturb anyone who might be asleep by this eerie hour of the night.
She took out the small locket which was in her pocket and stared down at it with a hefty look on her face.

Aella said nothing to the witch's joke and simply looked down to get her nerves together.
She had made up her mind to go on the incredulous mission but in the back of her head, she still doubted the very truth of it all.
