With exam season in full swing, the flow of days had become erratic for the students of Eldora Institute. With exam around the corner, schedules blurred. Routines bent. In the haze of academic chaos, most students juggled between study groups and training regimens. But not Saldrich not today.
She had carved this day out for something personal. No distractions. No intrusions. A sibling date, if one wanted to call it that. However instead of beginning with shared snacks or nostalgic stories, this date kicked off with Saldrich dragging Aldrich into one of Eldora's many training facilities, a space designed for students to hone and refine their Arts.
Aldrich stood across from her, arms loosely crossed, clearly unimpressed.
"I'm all ears, Sal. You made me ditch a team bonding exercise for this, so it better be good."
