[color=00746b]"Oh, yeah,"[/color] Cora began, dropping her eyes to her lap for a moment at Akane, though she managed to keep her smile, [color=00746b]"The sun is just really bright today!"[/color] She said as she shielded her eyes. The last thing she needed was for everyone to worry about her.

She was relieved when the group started moving toward Lucien's trailer again. Not only would it get her out of the sun, it would take the focus from her as well. They had more important things to worry about right now anyway, with the recruitment from yesterday. Now that she thought about it, she was very interested to hear if this magic man had accepted the offer or not.

She allowed herself to be lifted and deposited into a chair inside of the trailer. She greeted Lucien with a smile, which had regained it's usual brightness.

Just as Aurel was closing the door, Illyana came running up to the trailer and pushed her way inside. She looked a little disheveled, and was breathing heavily, her cheeks slightly flushed, but otherwise dressed and presentable. [color=598527]"I'm here! Sorry..."[/color] She said as she gasped and looked about the room. [color=598527]"I, uh...overslept."[/color] She said, and blushed even harder as her eyes dropped to the floor at her admission.
