Herald enters slowly, the place is really calm but he can already feel the different atmosphere in this part of the world compared to Koufonisi .

It was so clean and refres.h.i.+ng in there, but here it's all gloomy and uncomfortable .

Anyways, he has to think of the bright side as well .

Back to his woman, near his parents and friends, and all the art he can make now being inspired from the moments he spent in there .

It's going to be good as well!

He took a tour in the house, everything was pretty much the same from when he left it .

"So I am the only thing changed in here!" He said .

He took a dive on his bed, that's one thing he also missed .

One will also miss the bed he slept in for a long time, especially if you've made a lot of memories in there . . .

"What will I tell her now? I know she'll be happy for my arrival in the first days but then . . .

She'll be curious to know everything i did abroad, I don't even have a license that prooves i studied abroad . . . And she'll surely notice how i put on more weight and strength!

Will that make her think of something else?

Anyways, I'll figure it out when i'll look at her eyes . . . "

*1hour later*

The door was opened!

Herald was looking through his works he left in here . .

"She's here!"

Herald thought about staying in the room until she comes fto find him in there, to surprise her .

But he's hearing another voice . . .

"What's that . . . It's a man's voice!" He remarked .

Muruem . "Welcome Endymeon! Don't feel shy .

It isn't the best of places but it's still nice and clean . "

Endymeon . "No it's not anything like that . . . I just thought whether it was okey for me to go in . "

Muruem . "Well it's only for a moment, i'll make some coffee since you like it . "

Endymeon . "I appreciate that . "

Then, Herald comes out of nowhere and leaned on the wall .

"Didn't know you'll have guests, or else i would have came a little bit later!"

Muruem turns quickly, to see Herald standing . . .

Before she could even reply, in the span of less than a second!

She had already said so much in her head .

' . . Herald . . . Herald is here!! I thought he'll come tomorrow . . . . Wait!

Why does he look different!!?

His body . . . did he get stronger and . . . taller??

. . . Why does his eyes look like that?

Oh!! He doesn't know who's Endymeon!!

UGH f.u.c.k!!! Not a very good setting to introduce the two . . . '

All of this came into her head so quickly . . . This was the result of the unexpected appearance mixed with the importance of the person, and then the awkward setting!

But unwillingly she came closer towards Herald . " . . . You came back!"

Herald . "Must be your imagination!"

*Muruem touches his chest*

"No, it isn't my imagination . It's really you!"

She hugs him tightly, without saying much further .

Herald puts his arms arround her, but it wasn't the same hug he gave her 3months ago .

After some seconds, he asked .

"Who's the gentleman? It isn't respectful to make him wait like that . "

Endymeon stands up just moments after he sat down .

"No, it is me who shall excuse himself . I came in a wrong time and maybe a wrong place .

I am glad you're back Mr Herald, heard a lot about you .

Hopefully we'll cross ways soon .

I'll let you have your moment Muruem . "

Muruem was a bit embara.s.sed she invited him in such moment .

"I am sorry Endymeon, I'll make sure to make it up soon to you!"

"No problem, take care of each other . " He says as he left and closed the door behind him .

Muruem turns her back and looks straight at Herald .

"Should've told me you're coming dumba.s.s . "

Herald . "Thought i'll surprise you, but it was the opposite!

Who's he?"

Muruem . "A friend, i'll tell you all about it later on . For now i only want to hold you in my arms . "

Herald . "Hmmmmm, let's take it to another place then . "

*Herald picks Muruem up on his arms*

'Did she lose weight?! Ah . . . . I forgot again i got stronger . '

he then took he to the bed and both layed down on it, but a weird silence took over the place .

Supposedly after so long, the two would have a lot to talk about, but maybe it is better that they let the talking for later, and feed their feelings for the time being .

. . .

*Inside the Luxic Paradigm castle*

"So they're gone?" Oumad asks .

Alkeyder . "Yes they are . "

Oumad . "I would like to ask you sir Alkeyder, What's next for them? and us?"

Alkeyder stays silent

Oumad continues . "I know you said the goal is to create a new Atlantis, a new world .

But how? Another question is . . . All those who you have teached before, where are they now?

Do they just go back to their lives like nothing happened? Or does it become a personal goal to affect the ones arround you?"

Alkeyder stops him . "A lot of questions in a very short span, go easy on me Mr Oumad . "

Oumad . "I am sorry . . . "

Alkeyder . "But i'll answer you! Since you're in for the long run . . . "
