"Welcome back, disciples!" The beaming, eccentric voice of Horatio boomed in the courtyard, once everyone had returned. Devotion had to take a moment to remember, then he recalled: Horatio was the professor that had recruited Devotion that day, as well as countless other disciples. He seemed to be of rather high authority in the Summoner's Guild that Devotion belonged to.
Devotion turned towards Victor. "He seems more upbeat than normal." Victor nodded his head, his blue eyes seemingly deep in thought. Devotion wasn't sure if it was thought over what had transpired in the Secret Realm, or over Horatio.
"You're right. Either he's really happy, or something happened and he's trying to cover it up. Guess we'll find out." Victor thought out loud.
