"Alright then." Darius broke the silence that had fallen over the party after his suggestion. Having heard only one assent, he decided that was good enough for now.

"All those that want to meet, I'll be in the cafeteria." It was a large space, it was less destroyed than the rest of the academy, and it was far from the walls. It would be a good spot to plan their next move, and keeping all of this away from the dorms seemed like a good idea. "We'll start in an hour. If you have things to do before then, or just need to get your thoughts in order, you've got time."

With that, Darius buckled his sword into its sheath--little more than a leather strap really, given the irregular shape of the blade--and started in the direction of the cafeteria. Oh, if only there hadn't been a massive attack on the school mere hours ago, he could have set up a powerpoint for the occasion; any presentation is improved with a good pie chart. Unfortunately, that seemed to be out of the question right now, given the unreliability of the power around here and the lack of a projector. Maybe next time.

He left the courtyard to the few students that remained.
