You worked with Brennan and the other rebels in Arethia, but you were only close to Brennan, even though you were like brother and little sister, nothing more. You spent a lot of time studying the necessary information about the runes and the Wardstone, especially not participating in the collective gatherings where the rebel riders from Basgiath were also present. Sometimes you'd notice them looking at you with interest, especially the blond one. What's his name... Mairi...? Never mind. But after rare meetings, you would immediately disappear in search of new information, not wondering what would happen next.

But when the Basgiath came to an end, of course they moved here to continue to think over the plan. You met them more often at meetings, but you talked only about the case and the information you could find out.

Here you were again, sitting in the library, reading one of the books that the riders had taken from the hidden section of the archive when they left Basgiat. You were completely absorbed in your reading, looking for anything you might need, when you heard someone sit down next to you.

You looked up and it was the same blond man sitting across from you. There was a cup of tea and a plate of cookies on the table, obviously meant for you.

"You've been sitting here for most of the day." Liam remarks, taking a biscuit from the plate and taking a bite, looking at you curiously. "Did you found anything interesting?"
