Old friend: nostalgia always hits different

Araan looked dumbfounded.

He didn't budge. 

He was good.

"Let me phrase it a little differently. Why did you apologize back then and why did you do it?" My eyes sharpened. If the people weren't there, I'd probably had drown my knife. We weren't allowed to carry weapons but I insisted on the knife. They didn't stop me either. More like I'd have gone ballistic if they had.

  "I don't know what you're talking about Daarc…" He closed his eyes and faked an awkward smile.

Unsatisfied I continued to press my luck. "That reminds me, I haven't even caught your name yet." My voice shivered with seriousness.

If I can't get definitive answers then might as well figure out more. 

I was under the impression that he might be under the control of that demon. And I really didn't know that demon's name.
