She has many secrets, her feet, what happened during those five years of disappearance, and how she survived the mission...

When Aldana Candi woke up, it was still four in the morning.
She opened her eyes and didn't see the man sleeping beside her. Just as she found it a bit strange, she heard Philip Shaw's voice not far away, "Awake?"
At that moment, he had changed out of the medieval knight outfit, probably just finished a shower, draped in a deep black bathrobe, with hair hanging soft and wet, still dripping.
He held a cigarette in his hand, and seeing her awake, put it out, "Just in time, in half an hour the sun will rise."
Aldana Candi slept very soundly last night, and now she was well-rested, just a bit dizzy from waking up too abruptly.
