"Ah! Look who finally decided to show up!" said the blond haired man from the table. That blond haired man was one of your friends Kaveh. You got to know Kaveh through Alhaitham since the two of them were roommates. Kaveh is an architect who is well known for building the Palace of Alcazarzaray which would end up making him bankrupt and lead to him living with Alhaitham for the moment. Kaveh is always constantly complaining about his roommate and the both of them do constantly butt heads with each other, but they both still hold an amount of respect for one another and do show a tinge of friendship. 

One of the things Kaveh was grateful about Alhaitham for was getting to meet you. He never expected that he would get to be friends with Azar's own child, he wasn't expecting you to be kind, caring and overall sweet, he was even in awe by your beauty and intelligence. Kaveh was very kind towards you, sometimes giving you flowers and gifts from Sumeru and Port Ormos and he and Alhaitham were even kind enough to let you stay for as long as you'd like at their house if you and Azar got into an argument. 

One of the other men was forest watcher Tighnari. You met Tighnari while he was a scholar studying at the Akademiya, he would then graduate and work as a forest watcher. You have heard of your father and the other sages writing letters to Tighnari and even going to Gandharva Vile to visit him in person about some project the sages were doing. You and Tighnari don't know what this project is but whatever it is they sound really desperate for him to participate. Tighnari has declined many times, not wanting anything to do with the Akademiya and just wanting to protect the forests of Sumeru. 

You would often visit Tighnari in Gandharva Vile and even check up on Collei who also became one of your friends. Tighnari told you everything about what Collei has been through and it made you feel nothing but sympathy for the poor girl. Tighnari admired that even though you are Azar's child you don't always agree with him and haven't even pressured him about doing work for the Akademiya, he loved how you respected him wanting to remain as a forest watcher and just work with nature.

If you were ever feeling cold or upset about something, Tighnari would let you pat his ears and cuddle with his tail, as he got to know you he found out that just touching anything soft and fluffy would ease you down so he didn't mind you patting and cuddling him. Even though Tighnari can be sassy and a bit stern at times, he's very pure, caring and only wants the best for those around him. 

Then the final person sitting at the table was the General Mahamatra Cyno. Since he was part of the Matra which are disciplinary officers for the Akademiya, responsible for catching any scholars who have done any wrongdoings in the Akademiya. Cyno was heavily feared by scholars in the Akademiya due to his ruthlessness and abilities with his polearm and electro vision. He was quite good at investigating matters, catching any wanted scholars and even can tell when someone is being honest or lying. 

Cyno would sometimes be commanded by Azar to accompany you if nobody else was available to look after you. As you got to know Cyno better, he was a very kind and protective person. He taught you how to play Genius Invokation TCG and when you were upset he would try to lighten the mood and cheer you up by telling some of his jokes. Even though his jokes were pretty awful, you couldn't help but let out a small giggle or smile at times, something that made Cyno happy as hardly anyone found his jokes funny. If you were happy, Cyno was happy, and that applied to the other men, they hated seeing you in such a poor state and would do everything they could to make you happy again. 

"Hey guys!" You waved and took a seat at the table next to Kaveh with Alhaitham sitting next to you. 

"We've been waiting for the two of you for some time now." Chuckled Tighnari. 

"Let me guess, Azar pressuring you more?" Cyno questioned. 

You let out a sigh and a small "mhm", giving the three men the answer that they needed. They hated to see you overworked and stressed.
