After their talk, both Adham and Caspian couldn't stay long because they had other commitments. Despite having no classes today due to preparations for the Academic Olympiad, Adham and the other knight students were called to assist the fourth years with setting things up.
The courtyard buzzed with activity, students and knights moving briskly, setting up banners and arranging the grounds for the upcoming event. The sun cast a warm glow over the scene, the air filled with the sound of clattering tools and distant laughter.
Caspian, on the other hand, was preparing to leave the academy to meet with his mother, who was staying somewhere in Aetherhaven. He mentioned this with a soft, wistful smile.
