Eve Department

After waking Toki, the three made their way outside. Gojin bid farewell to Averyl, promising to return soon. He had thoroughly enjoyed her company and hoped they would meet again in the future.

The three of them approached the carriage waiting by the curb. The driver, a man dressed in a long, weathered coat, greeted them with a nod as they climbed aboard.

It rocked gently as they settled into their seats, and Howl adjusted his cloak, his keen eyes swept over their surroundings.
