It was not long after Lumi left when a knock came from the door. Opening it, Zephyrion met a hooded figure standing on the other side. His head was lowered, and his gaze darted nervously down the hallway as though afraid of being caught.
"Hurry… let me in."
Zephyrion stepped out of the way, and the figure hastily entered. The moment he was inside, he released a breath of relief, then lowered his hood. It was none other than Kaelith.
"Were you followed?" Zephyrion asked.
"What?" Kaelith glared at him. "Of course not! Who the hell do you take me for?"
Zephyrion simply stared.
Almost instantly, Kaelith's glare faltered. His gaze shifted away before cautiously drifting back to Zephyrion's face. Then, in a quieter voice, he added;
"I-I mean, no. I wasn't followed."
