Moments leading up to the situation.
'What's going on?'
It all happened out of nowhere. It was right when they had just finished counting their money and were about to close up the stall. Right at that moment, a figure appeared before them.
Just one look at her was enough to take An'as's breath away.
He had never seen anyone so impossibly perfect. Her face was delicately sculpted, every feature refined to utter perfection. Her long, lustrous black hair cascaded down like silk, and her eyes, those eyes, were as deep and unfathomable as the abyss itself.
But that wasn't all.
Forgetting all about her appearance, An'as became acutely aware of the identity of the person that stood before him, and his entire body froze on the spot.
She…
She was the same person who had taken care of Xa'hurl.
Recalling the moments when she fought against the beast, and even managed to suppress it up to a certain point, An'as felt cold sweat trickling down the side of his face.
