The man covered in white cloth was having a thick accent. Coincidentally the same accent as Teklavit have. Words wear spoken clear, strong, and precise. He then left.

Teklavit followed the man in all white. Hand crossed his chest, preventing his steps to reconnect the pain. He glared up and down. The ceiling, the wall, the floor—even the floor was white. He squinted his eyes, now that it was clear. Teklavit felt his vision blurred to his left. He touched his eye, it was swollen. He hissed together with the pain. He smiled.
