Izlandi woke with a start, she had been having a rather lovely dream when the doors were pushed open, and she saw a familiar image of her uncle coming in to check on her.
"Did something happen?" Izlandi asked while stifling a large yawn.
"Come with me?" her uncle said seriously, and soon she was dragged along with her uncle while dressed in her night clothes.
Despite the seriousness of the situation she dragged her legs as she followed after her uncle, she already knew what the news was, so she couldn't bring herself to feign being scared, especially with how happy she was feeling.
Fear was probably the last emotion she could feign right now.
Before long she was inside Cornick's room, it was filled with people who were forming a circle around the scene, but no one dared to approach.
