Rosa walked back to the room where she had last seen Kael and the knights only to find it empty. The space felt eerily quiet compared to earlier. Just as she was about to turn away, one of the knights stepped in and saluted her.

"Of course, thank you, Steve."
She fell in step behind him within the stone corridors of the embassy. The walk was short and filled with the sound of their footsteps alone. When they reached Kael's door, the knight excused himself and left her standing there.
She knocked three times.
"Come in," Kael's voice called from inside.
