    Summary

    Riftan looked at the letters in evident surprise. His eyes darted from a stack as high as at least three thick tomes piled on one another to a much thinner stack of creased papers the size of a tablecloth.

    “Are you telling me… there are only three letters here?”

    Summary

    Riftan’s silence only strengthened her suspicions. She had been right the whole time, then. He had told her there had been no one else after they met because it was the only thing he could claim without it being a lie.
    Maxi hastily turned away from him. “F-forget about it,” she muttered, swallowing the bitter lump in her throat. “I don't want to know.”
    “That wasn't the first time we met.”

    Summary

    “Sir Calypse. I hope you find our halls welcoming.”

    Her voice was soft and clear, flowing effortlessly, each syllable smooth and unhurried like a mountain stream slipping between stones. He found himself listening not to what she said, but to how she spoke.

    OR

    My humble character study What-if Maxi wouldn't stutter and how it would change her life and the story (spoiler: not how she would expect it)
