While he would greet guests and interact normally, and the official excuse was because of a staff's medical conditions, he laid low while his staff went through what went wrong. While they were right that the assassins were striking, they didn't really expect it to be a scare with magical properties. John was a little bit to blame too for being so brazen, but everyone had a progressive mindset. No blaming, focusing on solutions. They worked on finding who this perfumer was. They should hopefully get a lead soon. In the meantime, there were other troubling news. Roman was being summoned for a trial for what happened, along with other Varian nobles. This had the potential problems with what Frederick did the other night. Farim had said to him he wasn't going to be quiet about it. The Society was now beginning to link up with other Varian institutes and even some Caesonian entities to discuss the solutions to this. They reassured John that things will be fine, and that while it had the potential to cause massive problems, this would be a good show of force to the Caesonian nobles. John found it difficult to be so relaxed though. Throughout the entire carriage ride to Pinebrooks, he kept thinking about Roman's trial. But once he was there, his tension got off a little bit. Maybe they had it under control after all and he was overthinking it. He was supposed to be here to have some peace and quiet, maybe to be courted, but that seemed far fetched. He even doubted his own seriousness when it comes to finding women of his love, but that was the least of his concern. When the camp staffers welcomed him and offered to be optionally partnered up, John nonchalantly gave a yes to that. He didn't really care. He wandered off to enjoy the mesmerizing blanket of orange. The glowing light went a long way to make John less worried about what was to come.
