If there something more Kai Laiken loved other than Snow Days, it was walks on Snow Days. It wasn't that he was specifically interested in snow or water himself, the way some of his peers were, he just felt a calm affinity with snow & rain, that he often chalked up to his blood and more often to his innate humanness.
So it was rather a big shock for him the events that had transpired through the day, starting from the announcement of Fiera Celosis and Rose that morning, to getting a small perspective about his mother that evening, to someone in his vicinity getting shot by a statement-making black arrow that seemed to have no sane impact on the victim.
"You like this about as much as I do, don't you?" Aaron said.
They had been standing outside the Infirmary rather darkly left to each other's thoughts. Kai had no idea, how Aaron would be feeling right now, seeing as to how obvious and insultingly Fiera made her distrust in him appear. He gave a brief nod.
"I'll ask Zare to send in some stuff, and what about you, did you get injured anywhere?" Aaron asked, slightly ruffling his hair. Kai shook his head. "Very well, then. Why don't you go rest up before the Feast?"
Without waiting for an answer Aaron turned to leave.
"What do I do with this?" Kai asked twirling the arrow.
"Keep it safe. We'll see how we can deal with this." Aaron said. Kai wondered briefly if he should deposit the arrow to Terrol to see if there was any significance about the material it was made from, but chose not to do any such. He might have to tell the entire story and he had promised not to, on Fiera's account.
He twirled it again, this time thinking about what she had said about his mother, Neer. Ice-sprites. He had read his mother's paper on them, but maybe he will stop by the library to have another look.
Well at least he had something to do today.
