Kasumi
The group of Saviors returned to the city with one less member. Mizaki was sobbing her eyes out, all of Takomaro's calmness disappeared from his face. Even Akiven wasn't talking anymore and Alkoram looked furious. The only one whose expression barely changed was Satsuhiro. The only moment where the Savior had shown any emotion that wasn't "intense brooding" was when he heard about the girls Kasumi had seen in the blood pond.
No one spoke as they walked back to the palace. They made it all the way back to the room where they had their meeting without saying a word. Kuro was there, speaking with a scholar in brown robes as everyone came in.
"... Well," Kuro raised a brow. "Doesn't exactly look like things went well?"
"Where were you?" Akiven asked with venom lacing his words. "The whole point was that you'd show up eventually."
"It took more time speaking to everyone than I thought it would," Kuro replied.
