Emlica led me to a narrow alcove nestled between two hallways. It was small and cozy, with a dusty couch on either side. A small wooden table was situated between them, hosting a beautiful crystal lamp that filled the space with starlight.
She frowned at the couches and waved her hand, summoning a wave of wind that scoured the dust from the fabric.
"There, have a seat."
I collapsed onto the left one, leaning my head back against the soft fabric pillow. My tail curled contentedly in my lap, begging to be stroked. I obliged with a sigh, a subtle ache pervading my legs.
"I didn't realize you were so tired," she said, sitting across from me.
"I wasn't," I said, scratching my cheek. "I mean, I am now, but it just showed up."
She pursed her lips, looking me up and down. Her eyes flashed with uncanny light, and I shivered, hugging my tail to my chest.
"Y-you have the Eyes of Fate too?" I stammered.
