Ayaka

Tonight, Lumine would be standing guard on the castle walls and Ayaka wanted spend some time with her under the stars.

Dressed in a loose-fitting robe, Ayaka slipped out of her private chamber undetected and tiptoed down the empty halls until she reached the stairwell leading outside.

Her eyes scanned the area anxiously before spotting Lumine standing guard by an old oak tree.

“Good evening, my knight,” she greeted gently as she approached Lumine. “I hope I am not disturbing you.”
