Chapter 28: Lilith Astranova

Damon didn't head straight into the library. Instead, he made a detour to the infirmary to have his injuries treated.

It was a routine he had grown accustomed to, something he carried out almost mechanically. The healers worked quickly, their magic mending the bruises and cuts Marcus and his group had left on him.

Once patched up, Damon returned to the library. He immersed himself in a few books, letting their words distract him from the day's frustrations.
