The explosion was quite magnificent. It temporarily brightened the area, and Annika had taken a moment to take in their surroundings before they were plunged into darkness once more. Annika sighed happily. She always felt better in the shadows. She found it endearing that the others, particularly Rohan, were more on edge because of them. How would he respond to the Everdark, Annika wondered. The magpies remained transfixed on the wall while Connie and Cassie worked further to uncover the mystery. Annika stepped closer until Cassie stumbled back. She looked pale and not altogether well. Annika took another step forward, peeking around others to get a glimpse of the head. She saw an ear but left the detective work to the others. [color=#663399]”Are you okay?”[/color] Annika asked Cassie, kneeling beside her.

Then again, the knowledge they carry,”[/color] Cal said, his eyes seeming to sparkle briefly before they dimmed with Nick’s admittance to who Jake was. Cal had grown close to the twins, and he cared for them. He hadn’t claimed them like he had the moth, but he still felt obligated to serve and protect them. [color=#B22222]”Should you require assistance, you have it.”[/color] Cal spoke simply, knowing Nicky would reveal more should he want to at a later time. After leaving his room, the brush of Nicky’s hand brought great comfort to Callaghan. It was moments like these, when Cal could have Nick to himself, that he felt more connected and endeared to the witch. Although Nick pretended indifference, he always seemed to know what to say to provide Cal with the support and friendship he craved. [color=#B22222]”Thank you, Nicholas.”[/color] He brushed his fingers back over Nick’s, even though he simply wished to take the witch’s hand in his own. Cal unpacked his books and handed the journal to Nick to look through. [color=#B22222]”The starcharts were to try and discover more on planet Krodha. If we could pinpoint the mystery's location, maybe we could learn more about the people who hold it. Then there are the witch trials…Although, I am curious if this mystery is linked a little more closely to you and your brother than you may be comfortable with,”[/color] Cal said. He sat down, opening his notebook and a book on Kramer to learn more about the eccentric man.
