Chapter 104. Poisoned.

Alex found himself frozen in place, his mind a whirlpool of chaotic thoughts. He was trying to center himself, to find that calm and peaceful state he needed to clear his mind.

After some effort, Alex finally managed to regain control over his thoughts. He knew that he needed to still his mind before he could even attempt to think logically or make any decisions. He was grateful for the cool night air. It seemed to help him regain his composure. Closing his eyes, he let himself enjoy the sensation of the breeze against his skin.

He spent some time under the pale, beautiful light of the moon, letting the cool wind help to calm his turbulent thoughts. Finally, Alex felt calm. He slowly opened his eyes, ready to embark on whatever journey lay ahead.
