"He's back! Mister Alexandrus is back!"
As Adal stepped into the Velvet Curtain Theatre, he was immediately swarmed by the members of the crew.
It was Jack first, the young man who seemed to admire him ever since finding out about his relationship with Willow.
The man ran over, looked Adal up and down.
His eyes went wide.
"Whoa... Your hair..."
For the next minute, Adal had to deal with the reactions to his changed appearance.
He stood there, scratching his head, whilst looking around for his target.
Jack must have noticed this, as the black-haired boy pointed backstage.
"If you're looking for Willow, she's back there having a meeting. Apparently, it's an important one, so you might want to wait."
An important meeting?
Adal nodded his thanks, ignored the boy's advice, and headed backstage.
First, he poked his head through the curtain. He expected to see a large group of people in suits sitting around the table, perhaps talking about the future of the theatre.
