Part 2 - Called Back
Kayla entered the room with hurried steps and only stopped at the sight of the dark shadow by the window, looking outside at the city at his feet. The blazing fires had long died out, leaving only darkened stone, ash and an intense and sickening burning smell in their place.

“Yes. And keep me informed.”
She simply nodded and left the room, her steps echoing against the white stone floor.
