Chapter 25: Magika nel Musika

As the sun dips lowers in the sky, Kiora strides through the corridor with earnest. The Shik-Castellis stands quiet. Blue eyes are distracted by commotion outside. 'That's where everyone is.' She tilts her head to the side. Kiora places both palms on the windowpane to observe. Several goblins circle around Luce. At first glance, they seem to be attacking him!

However, Kiora hears laughter. 'He's training with them.' The lone soldier's tail flickers with excitement. She watches as Luce evades their strikes with ease. Short swords 'clink' against one another. Each additional sound entices Kiora to participate. She shakes her horns.

"I already made an engagement," she affirms. Kiora lips upturn in a sly grin. "Then again, Santanna never mentioned an exact time."
