Calahrena and Egeria had been gliding over the parameter of the ruins. Since Lysander had stayed on the ground the duo had decided it would be best to take to the air again. Luckily both had studied quite a bit of magic and did not have to find a high place to take off from. It cost Egeria a bit of energy but it was worth it to get the desired height in a lesser period of time. The first thing they had taken note of was the instructor coming back to the outside. The Winged Sentinels thought it a bit curious that he had not stayed with his students. They surmised that it must be part of the lesson, and they had been ordered not to interfere too much, not unless someone was in imminent danger.
The ruins would be too tight for Egeria to enter, but Calahrena wished she had. Kione was skilled but she would have felt better if she’d been able to join him in the ruins. They would undoubtedly split into groups and it would have been nice to have two agents to spread around and try to find the assassins before they struck.
Not long after the instructor had exited the ruins the two noted others coming out as well. First it was two people Calahrena did not know, and then the centaur. Both wondered why they were already coming out, they could not have possibly explored the entirety of the ruins yet.
“Paris is not with them,” Egeria intoned, “We should go check it out.”
“Agreed,” Calahrena responded.
There might not have been anything amiss, but they would have been remiss not to ask. The reason they were there after all was to make sure the Duke’s son was protected. Egeria tucked her wings in and dropped a bit before spreading them again and riding the currents. Griffins were one of the few species that could actually perceive the air currents naturally.
In mere moments Calahrena steadied herself as Egeria made a smooth landing, her silver black-tipped wings flapping as she did so.
The two did not speak with one another as they approached the group. When they were within hearing distance, since they had landed just a little ways away so the wind did not buffet the students, Egeria spoke. Both had caught sight Avera's cut, and taken note of the centaur's limp. Obviously there had been some sort of accident. Calahrena surmised that the boy must have just offered to bring the girl out, as he appeared fine.
"What happened? Where is everyone else?"[/b
