[Ellie's P.O.V]
The fire was quickly brought under control, only consuming one room, with two adjacent rooms affected, but the losses were not extensive. The ruins were empty, not even a single body remained. Indeed, she had escaped, and I couldn't help but sneer.
This minor fire drew everyone in the manor awake. Once I had a general direction in mind, I had Rowling help instruct everyone to go to sleep, and we'd deal with the remaining issues tomorrow.
Immediately after, I had Ollie dispatch people to guard all exits of the manor. Leah was unfamiliar with the manor; escaping wouldn't be that easy for her.
This night was completely sleepless for me. I saw Xavier, looking lost, but with the urgency of the situation, I didn't have time to attend to him.
As the lights in various rooms of the manor went out one by one, our residence remained illuminated.
