Deme was about to say something, his mind considering the fact that it might be quicker to just make shortcuts through the maze instead of going around, but then suddenly, Deme's ears pricked up at the sound of a familiar meow. Without hesitation, he dashed towards the sound, not hesitating for even a moment to see what his companions had to say about it.
He ran through the maze, his mind solely focused on rescuing Saxton. The meows grew louder and more desperate, urging him forward. Finally, in a small, secluded corner of the maze, he spotted his cat sitting serenely on a stone bench. Relief washed over him as he hurriedly approached.
To Deme's astonishment, Lord Saxton transformed into a young man with a wary yet relieved expression. "I'm Xavier," the stranger said, straightening his clothes and brushing off leaves. "I've been on the run from a crazy cat cult for over a year. I infiltrated them because I believed they were responsible for my father's death. When they found out, they cursed me blind, but I managed to shapeshift into a cat and escape. I've been hiding ever since, eventually finding safety in your household.”
Deme's mind raced as he processed the unexpected revelation.
Xavier responded, “I fear it may have been a coincidence, I overheard two that had disguised themselves, one as a servant and one as someone from The Eyes, they aim to take all your cats from you, free them from the tyranny.” He explained.

Saxton!Deme exclaimed, reaching out to pick up his furry friend. But as his hands made contact, the cat began to shimmer and shift in his arms. Deme immediately took a few steps back and watched the events unfold.

So, you’ve been living as my cat all this time?he said, as it seemed a question, when in reality it was simply Deme’s way of processing the information that he was given.
So this cat cult, they’re just looking for you?Deme asked, concerned for the safety of those at the ball.
