What could he do while Pree was away, but sit and listen? There was so much going on, chaos. He couldn't make out much besides something about rats, which made him shudder. He was very glad he hadn't come across any of those on his way up from the library.
He perked up when he heard Pree return. "A maze?" he shook his head. "What is going on in this place. It was better when everyone was naked," he remarked, reaching out to take that drink, fingers trembling a bit but maybe that was only from caution while he was reaching out, not from fear. Maybe.
