Levi walked in behind the others, being one of the farthest away. Trudging inside, he shrugged off some snow and cautiously basked in the warmth of the fire. Truth be told, he wanted to be as unobtrusive as possible, due to the caution coming from being around strangers who appeared to at least be from different continents. Perhaps he needn't have bothered, however, when the woman who owned the house informed the group of their positions. Levi and everyone else in the room were in a different world, and he was surrounded by people who came from different worlds. And there would be no way back.
"Did you guys here that?" Levi breathed.
Blade warbled gravely and Robin twittered nervously, both as worried as Levi. Perhaps Levi was more so. He certainly wasn't in a hurry to head back to the castle so soon, but it was distressing all the same. Now that he thought about it, though, there wasn't much reason to go back there for a while, but the fact was, he couldn't go back even if he wanted to.
No home means no friends. Levi thought. I want to see them again...
Levi was struck by a sudden, grave memory.
Mother's prophecy. The political situation... What if it all explodes while I'm away? He thought.
His birds must have sensed his distress for they rubbed their bodies on the side of his head to comfort him.
"I'm alright guys, really." He assured them, even though he wasn't.
"Of course, should you choose to take the path of the stones which brought you here, there is a chance you may see home again."
He was broken out of his worried trance when the woman mentioned something interesting. A possible method to go home. Levi weaved through the strangers to the front, offering the occasional polite apology as he pushed through, before coming up in front of the group.
I have to go back. Levi thought.
"Excuse me. Sorry to intrude on your home, but please tell me how to take that path."
His eyes were firm and determined. He would need to go back to his home eventually, and he needed to know how.
