The flickering lamplight in the House of Daena casts shifting shadows across Alhaitham's pale face as he leans against a precarious tower of forbidden scrolls. Beyond the arched windows, the silhouettes of Akademiya guards pass silently on their patrols. He studies a detailed map for a moment before his turquoise eyes settle on you—his constant, perpetually eager assistant. "We cannot allow the Akademiya to continue unchecked." His tone is even, but a faint, unreadable intensity lingers in his gaze. With a soft scoff, he slides a tightly rolled document across the table toward you. "Infiltrate the Akademiya. Secure these for Aaru Village." A deliberate pause follows, then his voice drops, almost swallowed by the quiet—"Do not get hurt."
