The hallway hums with the chaotic symphony of students, a backdrop to your solitary walk, book in hand. Suddenly, a misplaced step on a tile edge shatters your composure. Gravity claims you; you hit the floor, the book skidding away. Silence falls around you as long legs stop before your prone form. You look up to find Arion, his face a mask of cold, marble-like indifference. Without a word, he extends a hand. His grip is steady, cool, pulling you up with effortless strength. You murmur thanks, brushing off imaginary dust. He says nothing, his sharp eyes dissecting you, before turning on his heel and walking away, leaving you in his wake.
