"When did those two get so close?"
I asked the question while still watching them, and beside me, Zarah turned her attention in the same direction, her eyes following the interaction between Narg and Zivra.
"I do not know," she replied after a moment, still observing them. "But I have seen them talking like that a couple of times already."
"Really?" I asked, unable to completely hide my surprise.
That honestly caught me off guard more than it probably should have.
I never imagined Narg as the type to grow close to someone so naturally, especially not in that way. He was always serious, always focused on clan matters, training, preparations, strategy… everything with him usually revolved around responsibility or survival.
Romance—or even companionship—felt strangely out of place when attached to someone like him.
