'Was this really the right decision?' she wondered. 'Am I doing this because I want to, or because the plot is forcing me?'
As she spiraled deeper into thought, a stranger approached and sat down beside her.
Eleonora glanced at him briefly before looking away again. The man was wearing a tracksuit, his face hidden beneath a hood. She was not in the mood to detect or analyze NPCs, so she paid him no further attention.
Then, without warning, the stranger spoke.
"Sometimes, instead of chasing others, you should let others give you a chance."
Eleonora turned sharply toward him, her expression strange and guarded. "What do you mean?"
The hooded man replied calmly, "Do you really need to keep chasing others?"
Eleonora fell silent for a moment before shaking her head slightly. "You don't understand."
