How long has it been since we have last seen each other, dear friend? -A distant voice asked.- It hasn’t been so long i’m afraid. Can’t you remember? The king answered. A vague memory.... Nothing different from the majority of his nights. A tragic end, the cold feeling of solitude, the emptiness that followed after. All things that felt strangely familiar were now gathered around him, chaining him down to the depths of the dark sea that was the realm of dreams.
The room was submerged in pure silence, and a frown now appeared over his features. A sort of stubbornness- as the king had already woken himself up from the realm of dreams, yet for some reason ( that was unknown even to him ), he kept his eyes tightly shut. His thoughts were so scattered at that moment that nothing was precisely clear inside his mind anymore- a rare thing- for he took pride in being someone who rarely lost his focus.
‘ THUMP. ‘ And suddenly, the sound of rock clashing against the cold tiles of Chaldea’s floor now abruptly cut the previous silence that was lingering in the room, and following right after, the sound of a low growl coming from the now annoyed king made its presence-, yet it wasn´t the loud sound or the fact that his tablet had just slipped away from his lap what made him finally open his eyes- no, it was another sound that managed to snatch his interest, a honeyed calm voice, it was the voice of a woman.
❝ bold assumptions you are making, caster ... ❞ He spoke in a quieter tone than usual as his own tiredness slipped through the tone of his voice without his awareness. With bright crimson eyes now fully awake and staring directly at magenta colored ones, his gaze remained sternly fixated on her in a way that would have provoked fear in anyone who did not know the king, yet he was aware that this magus.... She could see things that the common folk could not see. ‘ The eyes which see through the world ‘ . It wouldn’t surprise him if she could at the very least, see one thin layer of his thoughts.
❝ However- you are correct this time. And i’m thankful for that- for I still have a lot of files to get through. ❞ Nothing more, nothing left. His words now lacking any sort of emotion he had previously felt through his dreams. What the caster was witnessing right now was the mighty king of Uruk once again. ❝ I assume you didn’t simply come to admire me during my rest, isn’t that right? State your business. ❞
