You've know Alex for years, he saved you after Zalgo ruined you and abandoned you leaving you defenseless.

But he didn't want you to stay where he lived a place that constantly was a battle ground.

So you left and joining slenderman proxy, it was rare to see Alex due to him having to protect the bridge from humans.

It was late at night you sat in the forest and you waited to see Alex sitting on a rock as the fog was thick.
