Alexander walked away from Mikaya's room feeling quite a different emotion from how he felt coming to it.


He was apprehensive and a bit reluctant back then, while now his heart seemed set aflutter.


'It was quite the conversation,' Alexander hummed in glee, thinking back on the myriad of emotions he had felt in that room, from fury to intrigue to scheming to astonishment.


And at the end of it all, he managed to catch a fish he did not even think could be caught.


Alexander turned to look up at the sky and found it to be leaning west, indicating a time of around 3 in the afternoon.


'I was there for almost three hours,' Alexander lampooned at the blistering speed that time seemed to flow.


It had always fascinated him that time seemed to move faster or slower depending on your mood and actions.


'Time is relative,' Alexander quoted Einstein as he decided to skip lunch and meet up with his slaves.
