I didn't expect Hedwiga to respond, so I just put on my shirt and gently kissed her.
- It was nice to visit, but duty calls!
Grabbing my things, I left the inn, whistling cheerfully and heading towards the headquarters of the Watchers.
Winking and beaming with my brightest smile, I walked through the corridors, cheerfully nodding and greeting all my comrades in the order along the way, until I reached the latest assignments on the board.
- The Emperor's Sword? Interesting. Vaironia, Vaironia... I don't remember who was sent there. Either way, my duty requires me to perform other tasks. Whoever is there, he will not let Him down. Vampires, diplomacy, - I muttered to myself. - A talented mage, the Academy. And this is exactly what I need. What's there?... Atelstan.
With a determined step, I headed towards the master of magic.
