Nataly felt comforted that at least one other person on the ship thought the Commander was absolutely insane. [i]I knew it! I knew it couldn't just be me! At least there's someone on this ship I can trust to be sane...[/i] She was about to confirm Ling's thoughts when a crew member came bursting in, demanding that Ling take a look at something elsewhere on the ship. Sounded shadowy.

Shadowy meant it had no interest to Nataly. As Ling went off with the crew member, a yawn escaped the Hydromancer's lips. The fight had taken more out of her than she thought. She decided her room was too far away so the common room would have to do. It wasn't unusual for people to crash in public areas at the academy. Surely the tradition would carry over here. Nataly curled up on the little bench that Ling abdicated and pulled her singed robes over her head as she attempted to get a nap in before the Commander did something else crazy.
