Six Months Later….
September painted the world in hues of gold and rust. The sun cast a soft amber glow over Nexus Academy, filtered through the gently swaying branches of aged trees. A crisp breeze blew past the training grounds, carrying with it the scent of drying leaves and promise of coming change. The atmosphere buzzed with an odd mix of calm and anticipation. Since midterm examinations were approaching.
The academy atmosphere had changed and so did Ryker.
Six months had passed since the combat simulation incident and Ryker had spent every moment wisely.
For him the past six months had been anything but quiet.
Ryker had kept his head down for most of the time, he was working behind the scenes and he tried not to attract too much attention but he was always watching. Always planning.
He has spent hours pouring over the academy's archives, finding and mapping out the forgotten characters. Those characters who had potential in the original story but never made it far.
