Before she could finish her sentence, a familiar voice rang out from behind Zafron. "Zafron? What are you doing here?"

He turned to see Cassandra descending the grand staircase, her brow furrowed in confusion. "I wasn't expecting to see you at work today. You were supposed to be resting."

Zafron straightened, offering a small bow. "I'm feeling much better. Besides, I can't allow you to be walking around without a guard."
