Noctis Brava was a pretty tall man, the same height as Zylus, to be exact. He held his smile high, never once seeming afraid or saddened. Noctis had yellow, clear eyes like the sun that was non-existent above, and black hair that covered his forehead.
"Hate this academy uniform," Noctis said, walking just in behind Zylus, Eldra, and Fred.
"Yeah, same here," Zylus said.
The night was still cold and dark, and the forest now stretched even wider as they continued walking through the large oak trees. So far, they spotted absolutely nothing, no magical creatures, and no enhanced beasts.
"Everyone, be prepared to use your technique at any time." Zylus calmly declared, "We don't know when something will appear-"
And just then, they heard the bushes all around them shake.
"What's that?" Eldra frantically whispered.
Fred backed off, behind Zylus, nervous.
"I don't know, but get ready," Zylus told Eldra, readying himself in an unorthodox fighting position.
