Ouzan chuckled a little when Luthais actually offered to grow some plants for her. Maybe her grandfather was right all those years ago, and the light elf was in fact a walking plant. She just shook her head in response. Still, hearing that the professor was free from this current duties made things a lot easier. ...but in that case, who was taking care of his plants while he was gone? The thought passed, however, when his family came by and took them into the inn.

Once Ouzan had checked in and placed her stuff into a small room, she went back into the lobby to find the professor. On the way to the inn, she couldn't help but notice how close his family was. She was reminded of her grandparents, and had to calm down her feelings of homesickness before they took notice of it. When she returned to the lobby, she kept herself happy by thinking about the white thorns, and what they could mean for Nisalvini. However, her smile might've seen unnaturally big to others passing by.

“Thank you again for helping me find a place to stay, Professor,” Ouzan said, once she caught up to him. “So what is your plan for the rest of the day? I assume going to the academy today might be out of the question...but if it's not, I wouldn't mind going. I leave it in your capable hands."

The depressing days-long trek and finality of the lowering of the coffin left the Wistaris with less than their usual energies, and a few of them simply curled up in their beds with their loved ones attending them. Shiyuli and Hanlin said something about finding food to bring back to them and went off. Luthais was the only other one to leave their rooms as he wanted to find Caleb in order to confirm the details of their trip back to the Academy and to tell him of what he had learned from Ouzan.

He found the girl waiting in the lobby for him. "You are welcome." Luthais was glad that they had been able to find a room in the inn for Ouzan. The place had initially been booked solid for the King's funeral, but nothing ever went exactly as planned for everybody; therefore, there had been a couple of openings as people dropped out for various reasons. "I believe that after seeing the king laid to his final rest, we are all in need of rest ourselves," he said solemnly. "We can set out for the Academy on the morrow. I would like to make contact with someone who will be traveling with us before we do, though. He would be greatly interested to hear what you have to say as well. If you like, you can come with me; I am going to meet him now." So saying, he exited the inn to find the place where Caleb was staying.

Ouzan seemed just a little disappointed, but not surprised that they weren't going to the Academy today. But hearing that they would be meeting another person traveling with them lifted her spirits up, and she followed him out of the inn. “Oh? One of the people from the Academy that you were speaking of before?” She checked for any obvious sign of such a person, but of course there wasn't anyone that she could recognize. Instead, she simply just followed Luthais until they reached their destination.

Caleb was aimlessly wandering around town after the whole deal concerning the King's procession. A heavy numbness gripped his heart, but that was only natural, considering the gravity of the recent events. The Conjurer had always desired change ever since the beginning of the war, but this was something he had never expected. The death of the beloved Giovan. Fate had its own ideas.

His walk led him to the town square where he sat down on a bench to rest. Passerbys were scarce, as mostly everyone had went home to recover from the funeral. If anything, the usual joyful atmosphere that resided in Miras had been replaced by crushing mournfulness. Caleb closed his eyes. What a day.

Brother's Bounty

12th Feb - 25th Feb
Delverne
A long winter has lead to dwindling stockpiles of food throughout the Cantish countryside. Although the problem is not as severe as a famine, peasants are finding themselves less comfortable than in previous years. Affected communities appeal to their leaders, only to receive excuses about food being diverted to the military for the good of the Kingdom. Fortunately, Cantor has a close and long-time ally in Delverne. The elvish state is happy to share supplies, pledging the surplus from public storehouses and organizing a food drive among the Delvan citizens...
