"You've finally arrived," exclaimed Professor Irene as Titania and I emerged from the academy gates. Her eyes widened slightly behind her glasses as she scrutinized me. "Wait, is that truly you, Shredica?"
"What do you mean by that?" I questioned, shooting her a stern look.
Professor Irene glanced at Titania, who was grinning beside me. With a subtle "Ah, I understand," she murmured before continuing, "Well, since you're appropriately attired for the occasion, I suppose we should depart immediately."
Titania turned to me, her expression thoughtful. "Now that you're departing, I presume this is where we part ways. Please do remember to reach out to me once your meeting concludes, and do share with me your discussions with the King."
