Zeruel's POV
Graduation was already just around the corner, and before long, we would finally be graduating from the academy. It honestly felt a little strange to think about it, considering how much time we had spent here and how quickly everything seemed to have passed. A lot had happened during my years at the academy, and some of those experiences had opened my eyes to things I probably would never have understood if I had lived a different life. There had been plenty of rough times along the way, but without those experiences, I probably wouldn't have become the person I was today, and I wouldn't have gained so many things that I now considered important to me.
