"One student reported seeing quote a bunch of people standing around while the monster stopped working unquote. Another mentioned quote some guy with glowing eyes who might have been fighting or might have been having a seizure unquote."
"A seizure."
"Essentia manifestation can present similarly to neurological episodes in low-light conditions."
Mera snorted. "So what you're saying is that Rome looked like he was having a medical emergency while he was busy saving everyone's lives."
"I'm saying that eyewitness testimony is remarkably unreliable and we should be grateful for that fact."
My phone buzzed again. Another message from Aurora.
AURORA: I'm coming over. I don't care if you need time or space or whatever. I need to see that you're okay with my own eyes.
AURORA: Don't try to stop me.
I showed the message to Mera and Cheon.
"Well." Mera's tail tightened around my wrist. "This should be interesting."
