He's done

As Eva's eyelids fluttered open, confusion clouded her thoughts. The early morning light filtered through the trees, casting dappled shadows across her skin. A cold shiver raced down her spine, stirring her from her slumber.

But it wasn't just the chill that jolted her awake. She blinked, trying to make sense of her surroundings. 

She realized with a start that she was no longer within the desert in Havag's borders.

The most startling revelation, however, was the sensation of warmth and security enveloping her.

 It took a moment for her to register the strong, comforting presence beside her. With a dawning realization, she glanced to her side and found herself cradled in Xylon's arms.

The memory of how she ended up here eluded her, lost in the hazy fog of sleep. 

The last thing she remembered was his words.He had uttered something about no one daring to even look at her, but the details remained fuzzy, obscured by the veil of sleep.
