Engfa calmed Charlotte down and sat her down on the bed. Charlotte still felt a warmth growing inside her, but it was not something she was used to. Her instincts whispered to her that something had changed. Still, having Engfa by her side brought her some comfort. Engfa gave Charlotte a reassuring look, but he tried to hide the uncertainty rising inside him.

"Don't worry, Charlotte," Engfa said, determination shining in his eyes. "We'll figure this out right away."

Engfa gathered his mind and focused. He silently closed his eyes and began to call out to Myx in his mind. There was a heavy silence for a few seconds, then Myx's voice echoed in his mind. His voice was a little excited, as if he expected something to go wrong at any moment.

"Engfa? Is everything okay? What's going on?" Myx asked, her voice nervous but quick.

Engfa relaxed slightly when she heard Myx's voice, but she still felt uneasy. She thought about the complicated moment they had just experienced for a moment, and involuntarily smiled a little shyly. She looked at Charlotte, then mentally responded to Myx. "Everything... was great," she said, slightly embarrassed. "But... there's a problem."

These words increased Myx's anxiety. "What do you mean, Engfa? What's wrong? Should I come to you right away?" Myx asked, her voice filled with concern.

Engfa took a deep breath and regained her seriousness. "Call my grandmother. We need to talk to her. Go to the library and connect with me," she said firmly. She knew they needed her grandmother's wisdom to understand what had happened and help Charlotte.

Myx accepted the request immediately. "Okay, Engfa. I'll be right back," she said, and disconnected the connection.

Engfa slowly opened his eyes as he felt Myx leave his mind. He turned to Charlotte, who was watching him with curious eyes. Charlotte still had an anxious expression on her face. The fear of not understanding what this change inside her was clearly visible in her eyes.

Engfa leaned down slightly to Charlotte's forehead and gently touched her lips to it. She gave a soft kiss, to give Charlotte a little more peace. "We'll figure it out, my love. Don't worry," Engfa said, his voice full of confidence. He wanted to make Charlotte feel that he was by her side, as he always was, and that they would figure everything out together.

Charlotte felt a little more at ease with Engfa's words of confidence. But there was still a warmth inside her, she still couldn't figure out what was going on. Engfa's presence was calming her, but her instincts were whispering to her that he was up to something else. She looked into Engfa's eyes and deep down she trusted him.

Engfa cast a reassuring glance at Charlotte and kissed her forehead before turning her mind back to Myx. When she closed her eyes and focused, she heard Myx's voice again. This time, it was calmer and more controlled, but Engfa could sense a slight echo of concern.

"Engfa? What's going on now? You need to be more specific," Myx whispered, but he could sense that she too was uneasy.

Engfa took a deep breath, trying to gather the information in his mind and began to tell Myx everything he had experienced. "Charlotte... came into contact with the sunlight, Myx," he said, his voice calm but serious. "The sun didn't hurt her. She says she feels a warmth inside, but that warmth scares her. Then... her eyes turned blood-red and she said she had to drink blood."

Myx's breath caught for a moment in Engfa's mind, and Engfa noticed this surprise immediately. Myx's brief silence revealed the seriousness of the situation. Myx thought for a few seconds, then the surprise and concern in her voice became more pronounced. "This... is unbelievable, Engfa. You should definitely talk to your grandmother. This could be more than even the Morgana Le Fay lineage knows," she said, her voice trembling and filled with astonishment.
