Rapping my knuckles on the door, I spoke loud enough that the Lioness inside would hear me clearly.
"Adelina, it's Jahi Asmodia; may I come in?"
Waiting for a few moments, I heard some shuffling inside the room before a woman coughed, responding in a tired voice.
"Come in..."
Nodding, I opened the door and stepped inside, approaching the golden haired woman laying down on the bed, her long flowing hair falling down towards her chest.
The Commander's cheeks were slightly hollow, and her eyes were filled with regret and pain as she glanced towards us, only to look towards the window beside her moments later.
Grabbing one of the chairs in the room, I sat down beside Adelina and waited, staring at the usually confident Commander of a Legion.
She didn't turn back, nor speak under my gaze, and I sighed as I shook my head.
