It was early morning. Bellua hadn't slept, having kept watch on the Academy above. Noticing the sunrise, he rose to his feet, the fire having already died through the night. He didn't need it, anyway. Turning to those who were sleeping, he spoke sharply. "Rise and move if you wish to come. My destination is a small walk from here, and I wish to close the distance efficiently."

Euclid remained still, more so overcome with the shock that his only method of protection seemed to simply vanish from his hold. He watched the room with hurried eyes, eyeing first Leon, then Rose, then GM, switching between the three as the conversation picked up. He could hear GM asking about something called 'Rin'. He wasn't sure what it was himself, but started to think about the huddled corpse of that animal in the cafeteria. Sickened, he closed his eyes and tried to think of something else.
