Thalassa and Hertha arrived at the principal's office door, which was slightly ajar. Thalassa knocked on the door, but no response came. They exchanged glances, and without further patience, Hertha pushed the door open: "Principal..."
Her face was lit with an eager smile, ready to greet whoever was inside. However, her words hung in the air as they realized the room was empty. Hertha's smile faded as she turned to Thalassa, "No one's here."
Just then, a staff member from the orphanage passed by. Thalassa quickly stopped them and asked, "Excuse me, do you know where the principal is?"
"The principal's playing games with the kids in the main hall," the staff member replied.
"Where's that?" Hertha inquired.
"I'm headed there myself. Follow me," the staff member offered.
Thalassa and Hertha followed the staff member to the main hall. The children were seated on little stools, listening intently to the principal, who was telling a children's story with animated enthusiasm.
Thalassa and Hertha waited by the entrance, not wanting to interrupt. Unable to stay still, Hertha's gaze wandered over the children sitting in rows. Her eyes suddenly fixed on a little boy seated in the middle.
After looking intently for a few seconds, she became even more certain that the boy was Georgia's child! Having met with Georgia holding the child several times, Hertha had taken a good look at him before. Those distinct almond-shaped eyes were the spitting image of Alaric's.
