His father had hung up. Edric had no doubt in his mind that he'd immediately make his way to Athalia. If he really tried, he could make it up in a matter of hours. Coincidentally, Edric had been scouring the school for an hour or two. 

[color=lime]"Jason?"[/color] He said, poking his head into an empty storage closet. 

He had sprinted back into the ballroom. A quick scan led him to believe that his father wasn't there. He figured a drunken adult stumbling into the ballroom and yelling for his wife would create more of a scene. He ran to the dorms. 

[color=lime]"Jason!"[/color] He yelled, running through dorm halls. Speaking of, where the hell was his room? He was fairly sure he'd been given a key. He shook that thought aside. Finally, he skidded to a halt outside a door that was ajar. 

[b]"...wearing shades?"[/b]. 

Edric cocked an eyebrow. That was his father's voice, but he could not think of a feasible reason for Jason Karst to be inquiring about someone's sunglasses while on a drunken search for his wife. 

[i][color=lime]"Maybe he's sober.[/color][/i]

[i]Fat chance of that, Eddy.[/i]

He sighed. Azamor had a point. He took a deep breath and walked into the room. There was his father, as well as a girl with snakes in her hair.

[i][color=lime]Uh...[/color][/i]

[i]She's a gorgon.[/i]

[color=lime][i]Thank you, Aza. Knowing why the girl has snakes in her hair completely alleviates the strangeness of this situation.[/i][/color]

[i]Sarcasm? Wonderful, I really am a bad influence.[/i]

Edric shook his head. He walked over to his father, tapping him on the shoulder.

[color=lime]"Dad. Dad, her name is Lily now. You dropped the phone before I could tell you."[/color] He took a shaky breath, steeling himself for Jason's reaction. [color=lime]"She's suffering from some sort of amnesia. She doesn't remember us."[/color] He didn't have the heart to tell him that she also seemed romantically involved with a Skylark. That would certainly be an interesting conversation, but it would probably be best saved for later. He turned to the gorgon, mouthing the words [i]I'm sorry[/i].
