"Hello, Sir Finnian and Madam Helena," Aether greeted with a wave, his hand moving awkwardly through the air. He cast a quick glance at Helena, who stood nervously behind Finnian as if she were afraid of him.
'Did she tell him everything?' Aether thought to himself.
He then said, "Is there anything you need from this humble servant?"
Finnian, with his piercing golden eyes, stared intently at Aether before speaking, "I heard you entered a woman's dormitory."
"Yes, Princess Aqualina summoned me, and the Dorm Manager allowed me in after some earnest pleading from the princess," Aether replied, maintaining a stern and serious expression on his face.
Finnian continued to scrutinize Aether for a few more moments before pulling Helena forward. She had been hiding behind him, her cheeks tinged with a faint red hue, "Go on," he prompted her.
Helena blushed slightly and looked at Aether, her voice soft as she said, "Thank you for your help before."
