The sunset has faded, and the crescent moon is just beginning to rise.
The night in the north district of Dragon City was dim and blurry. Using the pale moonlight as guidance, Colin walked alone on the deserted street.
The scenes from the day replayed over and over in his mind, various doubts swirling around, preventing Colin from sleeping peacefully.
Since he could not sleep, Colin set off from Phoenix Palace to wander around Dragon City.
Of course, it wouldn't be accurate to describe it as wandering because he did have a purpose.
Knock, knock, knock.
Colin knocked on the doors of a courtyard, where he saw an emblem of a dove clutching an olive branch — the badge of the White family.
The gate creaked open, and an elderly man looking like a butler came out. On seeing Colin's viscount attire, he hurriedly bowed and asked, "Respected Viscount, how may I assist you?"
"I am Colin Angler. Is Scholar Doan available?"
"Yes, he is! Please come in, Viscount Angler!"
