Merrion blinked his eyes open, and he stood next to the crystal at the docks, where fighters were in greater numbers than regular people tonight. All of the rebuilding efforts had been placed on hold until the morning so that everyone could rest, and the emptiness of the docks compared to what Merrion had become used to seeing was... eerie. He wondered about the ghosts of those who had died and if they were the ones who filled the empty space, and he shuddered. A true sign that spirits were about, he read somewhere once, when you get sudden chills. Merrion just counted himself lucky that he knew nobody who had been killed, though from what he heard -- and saw for himself that day -- there had been a few close calls.
But this was no time to think back on that day. He -- and everyone else in Emillion -- was doing what he could to rebuild and prevent, and he was now doing what he could to make up for his weaknesses that day. He stole a glance towards the warehouse where he and Wil had been, and then he shook his head. Merrion told himself to check on the captain in the morning, but no news was good news, right?
For now, though, he needed to find Drake. There was something he had meant to do nearly a week ago, and it needed to be done if there was to be any hope to save the friendship. Ari had reassured him that he didn't need to, but Drake had to feel something for her, didn't he? Merrion could not imagine why not -- who in their right mind couldn't? -- and to betray him now... he took in a deep breath and made his way down the street to look for Drake. He dreaded the conversation, but it needed to be had.
