The Second Event: The Dream Stalker's Invasion [1]

"So, what you are saying is that boy doesn't have an affinity with either of the seven elements, right?" Rowan inquired, his curiosity piqued.

Emeric nodded, confirming his brother's question. "Yes, that's correct. Adrian is affinityless. He can't use any of the elemental powers."

A slow smile spread across Rowan's face, a mixture of intrigue and something more. "Interesting. Very interesting indeed."

He then gave Emeric a pat on the shoulder, pausing as if remembering something, and turned to leave. "Ah, I almost forgot. I left something back in the arena. We'll talk more next time."

Before Emeric could respond, Rowan was already striding down the corridor, his figure disappearing around the corner. Emeric stood there, a mix of emotions swirling inside him. He had wanted to say more, to ask Rowan for advice or maybe even share some of his worries, but now the opportunity was gone.
