Reuniting

Alex and Kary spent the day watching shows on the television, cuddling up under a summer blanket. They ordered food for their meals, since neither of them had the energy or will to get up and cook.

When the sun started setting outside the windows, Alex resolved to log into New Eden. He hadn't been on in a few days and he had missed the award ceremony.

He was hoping someone had grabbed his item for him, since losing a free item like that sucked. But Kary told him no one could have taken his item.

Apparently, a special person had been there during the distribution of rewards, and they had put aside a certain item for him. Alex was slightly sad that he couldn't choose for himself, but at least he would not come out empty-handed.

When he asked her who it was, Kary shrugged.

"I didn't recognize him. It was a tall, well-built man with blonde hair and golden eyes. He had no aura that I could read to recognize him, either."
