Holding the banister with his hand, the smooth and cool wooden handrail was soft, and soon began to grow warmer under his fingers. It was rare for him to find time to relax, Garen stood there on the balcony, and fell into a slight silence.
After some time.
"Lucian, why did you run all the way here?" The balcony one floor beneath him just happened to face the second floor, and a young man's crisp and clear voice came from below.
"I just wanted to calm down a bit by myself." Another calm and cool man's voice spoke, his tone was not particularly icy, but it gave one a feeling of cool distance.
"Bales and the others are here, as are Violet and Corin, aren't you going out to meet them?" The clear young man's voice asked softly.
The other person did not reply.
"Don't be so shy, won't ya?"
"..."
