074 [Video]
[When Saleh wakes, his room feels...strangely empty. Even with everything back to normal, something still feels...off. It becomes clear within minutes. The room is empty, the silence deafening. No perky student to spice up his life.]
...Ewan?
[With barely a sound, he creeps around the room, looking for any traces. Ewan's belongings are nowhere to be found either. This can only mean one thing.]
[Saleh picks up his journal with a deep breath.]
For those who knew him...Ewan...my student...has returned to his own world. He was a growing, gifted mage, and...I am very proud of him.
[And then for the other thing on his mind. He owes an apology to a certain someone. Another instance of a love that turned out to be false. It only makes him think of Julia. While he isn't sure exactly what he felt, he knows that it was real.]
Miss Faith...I owe you an apology. My thoughts, my behavior...they were improper.
[He'll leave it at that and not drag it out. Short and to the point.]
...Ewan?

[Voice]
[But given how long he's been here already, he's not counting on returning home anytime soon. As for the visit...]
If you would like, I would not object.
[Voice] --> [Action]
[He wouldn't normally do something like this but somehow he feels that it would be a nice gesture. He wants to do this. So after a while Saleh will be getting a knock on the door~]
[Action]
[Saleh waits quietly, meditating on his bed. He almost doesn't hear the door knocking when it comes, but after a moment, he'll get up to answer it.]
Hello...thank you for coming, Eleytheria...
[Action]
[Eley's still a little hesitant about stepping inside right away. Something about enclosed buildings just made him uneasy, though good company helped him get over that for the most part.]
[Action]
[The whole altered memory thing, and Ewan going home... Things could be worse, and they have been.]
...Won't you come in?
[Action]
[He steps inside at the prompt. After staying here with Ewan before he also realises just how empty it suddenly seems.
Oh, it's then Eley remembers he had something to give Saleh. He turns to his friend and offers him a bar of chocolate.]
Tsuzuki told me that this makes you feel better. It certainly seemed to help me when I was feeling... sad.
[Action]
[He takes the bar, looking at it curiously.]
...You mean in the emotional sense?
[Action]
I believe so. Perhaps it is just because I enjoyed the taste... or that I was with a friend. Perhaps it was a combination of both. Either way, I hope that it will help you to feel better.
[Action]
[Still, it would be rude to turn it down, so Saleh carefully unwraps the chocolate bar and begins to nibble on it.]
Perhaps you are right. It does me good to see you, Eleytheria. Thank you.
[Action]
[Perhaps he shouldn't bring this up now but he wants Saleh to understand why he's doing this. And that these feelings were genuine, even if their family bonds had been a lie in that other life.]
