[Atticus’ POV]For the rest of the day, I roam around town, and when night finally falls, I make my way to Morte Diem, where August’s apprentice should be waiting for me.When I arrive, I spot her behind the counter chatting with the last two people that I expected to see, and for a moment, I wonder if I should leave and come back another time. However, when her eyes come to rest on me, I know that I couldn’t.“Hey!” Morgana calls, causing both that woman and Vance’s eyes to come rest on me. “August told me you were coming.”Remaining in place, I meet the woman’s gaze and feel something in me shift as all the hatred and hurt that she is feeling slams into me like it is my own emotions. It is weird, and I’m not sure how to take it, but maybe this meant that she was actually telling the truth earlier on.“Atticus,” Morgana pushes when I continue to remain in place. “Are you just going to stand there?”“No,” I finally say, snapping out of my daze.Brushing off all the unpleasant feelings
