After that terrifying incident on the training field that night, Adrian seemed to be reclusive.

He only apologized for what happened the night after, but since then, he kept to himself and stopped talking to me afterwards. He told me he was sorry for making me afraid that night but stopped even looking at me. He chose to retreat to his chambers, only coming out when he was summoned for work. This left me bewildered and full of worry.

Days turned into nights, and still, Adrian remained secluded, avoiding any interaction with me. He didn't need to explain what had happened that night as he looked visibly confused too after...
