Midnight had long since descended upon Crownspire Academy.
The bustling pathways that remained crowded throughout the day had gradually fallen silent beneath the darkness of the night, while the countless academy buildings stood quietly beneath the pale silver moonlight pouring down from the sky above. Occasional mana lamps illuminated portions of the pathways below, yet compared to the lively atmosphere of daytime, the academy now felt almost eerily peaceful.
Inside Damon's dormitory—
The room remained illuminated only by a small lamp resting upon the desk.
Soft golden light stretched across the floorboards while shadows gathered quietly in the corners of the room.
Meanwhile—
Sahira slept soundly upon the bed.
