Kaveh's POV:
I wake up in a small tent. What happened? Did the traveler give in? Am I safe? I slowly get up and exit the tent.
"Kaveh?" A voice says. It's Alhaitham. He's here.
"Alhaitham?" I say rushing towards him.
He's sitting up against a tree. I jump on top of him and start to cry. He hugs me back.
"Everything is okay. Dottore is gone, forever." He tells me.
I smile big and wipe my tears.
"What happened?" I ask him.
Tighnari, Cyno and the traveler walk over to us.
Alhaitham explains everything that happened.
"I'm so glad you all are okay." I say, smiling at all of them.
We all share a big hug.
"Do you still need to turn in your project? Alhaitham asks me.
"I forgot about that." I say, laughing a little bit.
I help Alhaitham stand up.
"Are you gonna be okay?" I ask him.
"I think I'll be good, thank you." He responds.
"I'm gonna go turn in my project, you guys should get back home now."
"Not without you, Kaveh." Alhaitham says.
"It's okay, I'll walk back with him!" Aether says.
"Thank you Aether!" I say, giving him a hug.
He laughs.
"Okay, you guys be careful alright?" Alhaitham says, starting back home.
"We will." I say, going to get my stuff from the headquarters.

(Small time skip bc I'm lazy af)

I get my model and I go to the building I need to turn it into.
KNOCK KNOCK!
I knock on the door. Somebody answers.
"Kaveh?" He asks.
"Yes, that's me. I'm here to turn in my model."
"I'm so glad you are here! Welcome! Come inside!" He says.
I enter the building. He sits me down at a small table and I give him the project.
"Outstanding work Mr. Kaveh!" He says, observing my work.
"Thank you." I say.
"I'll pay you 1 million mora!" He says, going through a big box.
Did I hear him correctly? One million? I'm going crazy!
"Here you go! He says, hanging me a heavy pouch containing a lot of mora.
"One million?" I ask, absolutely shocked.
"Yes sir!" He says happily.
"I can't accept this! It's too much!" I say, panicking.
"I insist you take it. Please, you deserve it!" He says, pushing me out of the building.
"Okay, fine. Thank you so much sir!" I yell, bowing.
"You are very welcome!" He tells me, smiling.

Nobody's POV:
Alhaitham, Tighnari, and Cyno have just arrived at home and are relaxing after their extremely long day.
Kaveh and traveler have just started off back to sumeru.
"He paid me one million mora!" Kaveh says, showing traveler the pouch.
"One million? Congrats! You deserve it!" Aether says, congratulations his friend.
"I-." Kaveh pauses for a moment. "I can't move out of Alhaitham's." He says, sounding a little bit down.
Aether realizes this.
"That's nice." Aether says, trying to lighten the mood.
They walk in silence for the rest of the way there. Mehrak follows behind them.
After a while, the finally make it back home.
"Thank you for escorting me back home! I appreciate it!" Kaveh says, giving Aether a hug.
"No problem! Enjoy the rest of your day!" He says, leaving with paimon.

I'm so sorry that chapter was so short. I didn't know what to put 😭💀
