"What defines strength?"
The question hung in the air, carried by a soft, melodic voice that commanded attention.
I sat in silence, my gaze fixed on the woman at the front of the lecture hall.
Yennefer Von Castia—our professor and a figure as intimidating as she was captivating.
She moved gracefully, pacing around the class with an air of authority.
Her long white hair, touched with a faint pink undertone, was tied neatly into a high bun, though a few loose strands framed her striking face.
She wore an elegant dress beneath a lab coat, an unusual yet captivating combination that somehow suited her perfectly.
Her sharp ember-like eyes swept over the sea of students as though she could see through every facade and mask.
Her presence alone was enough to keep the room silent, each of us waiting for her next words.
A stinging pain rushed through my finger, but I chose to ignore it.
'She is ignoring me.'
