The man swallowed hard with a dry throat. He looked at the closed double doors at the end of the hall and found that he was lost for words. He himself didn't know how to explain what he had just felt either.
Helix reached the door first and pushed them open with a frown on his face. He had also seen the way the Preceptor had frozen up and his caution regarding Finn was now reaching a fever pitch, though he was able to maintain a front of composure due to his upbringing.
He stepped into the room and announced his arrival with a bow.
"I have brought the Ossuarist as requested," he called out to no one in particular.
Finn stepped into the room and took in the space with a curious gaze, just as a voice spoke from the shadows:
"Thank you, Helix. You may go."
Helix bowed again and took his leave. He closed the door firmly and left Finn alone in the room.
