His words made me feel warmth all over for some strange reason. "Why would you want to help someone like me?" "Because I can't have you messing with lives again" He replies as a matter of fact. "You said earlier you don't have a distrinct to stay in. Would you like to follow me home?" "Home?. You live alone?" "Of course I do" He responds. "I'm the last of my kind that's why immediately I felt the balance of time being messed with I knew it was an outsider doing such as there are no chrono mages in Eridoria yet" As he leads the way to his home, I inquired. "What is your name, by the way? I don't know how to address you" "You can call me Xandos" "Nice to meet you, Xandos. I'm Xagrel" Xandos gives me a disapproving look.
