"Why…?" Kyra asked, her voice soft with confusion and hurt. She and Silas had just begun to grow closer, the bond between them deepening. But now, out of the blue, he had told her that he had something important to attend to in Eldoria and needed to return to Cloud City for some time.
"It's something I have to take care of," Silas said, his tone distant, his golden eyes avoiding hers.
Kyra frowned, her disappointment clear in her expression. "If it's important, then… it's fine," she replied, trying to be understanding. But inside, it felt like he was pulling away from her just when they were becoming more connected.
Silas didn't offer much more explanation, simply nodding before leaving. As he walked away, Damon and Vincent exchanged knowing looks. Since their date, Silas had been acting off, distant in a way that didn't sit right with either of them. Something was wrong, and they both silently agreed that they needed to keep an eye on the situation.
