Aren and the group sat inside a nice lounge. He lay on a long couch staring at the white ceiling. The room scented of wood candles, helping them be calm.
Each of them was now in completely casual clothes. Aren had on a massive black hoodie and tracksuit pants.
Sitting at his feet was Athena. She was leaned back into the couch, her eyes shut as well. While on the ground close to him was Zero, who was fiddling with a fidget spinner she found.
Aiden was on another chair reading a swordsmanship manual that he got before coming here, and Kira was on a bean bag, eyes shut like she was sleeping.
They had been called here early in the morning, the day after everything had gone down. They all wanted and needed a lot of rest, yet this morning, they all got visits from guards that brought them here.
"Arghhh, could they come and do what they want already? We've been here for half an hour," Aiden said. He didn't take his eyes away from the book even as he spoke.
