As I stood there, my mind lost in contemplation of the enigmatic figure in the distance, "who is she?" a familiar voice startled me from my reverie.
Turning around, I was met with the sight of Aurelius, the royal archmage, and my closest friend and mentor. His gaze was fixated on the same spot I had been observing for the past hour.
A smile effortlessly spread across my face upon seeing him. "Aurelius, when did you return?" I inquired, embracing him warmly. His presence brought me comfort and reassurance, for he was not only a trusted confidant but also a source of wisdom in this tumultuous world.
"Just now," he responded, a gentle smile adorning his features. I could see the faint signs of fatigue in his eyes, indicating he too had endured a sleepless night, just like me.
