It's Too Late to Be Saved

starter for @centrifugalcycle

The new student instantly piques Zephia's interest. They are odd and quiet, but seemingly familiar at the same time. How interesting indeed. They are clearly Agarthan, though unlike any other that she had seen in the brief time she had spent in Shambhala. The closest example to any Agarthan she could come up with to this kid was Nikolaos, that mousey man who had explained as much as he could to her while she had still been there.

Not just that, but the kid bears a striking resemblance to a statue that she had observed, though her mousey companion hadn't mentioned who the person depicted was, or rather had been distracted before he could explain any further. But now, that statue bothers her, with how distinct the resemblance was.

Who in the world was this kid? And whatever was an Agarthan doing here so plainly at the academy anyway?

Out of curiosity, she can't help but call out to them after class concludes, probably against her better judgement.

"Dear, could I speak to you for a moment? How do I put this... you... intrigue me, sweetheart."
