On Ricus's words, miss Aletta lead the children upstairs where his office was. When she got to the front of the office, she pulled the door open for the kids to go in first then followed behind them.
When she was in, she saw Shakir sitting on the bare floor near the couch, and his pale old body dried out in his thoughts.
Miss Aletta stood still at the door, not wanting to draw Shakir's attention to herself. She is swollen with worries on what kind of excuse should be given to Shakir about Dana's absence.
She is beguiled with worries on the city sky becoming so heavy with hollow's of death wandering about in their midst. That is why she had the children brought to the adventurers guild where it should be safe from being captured in the dreadful arms of the grim reaper that has come to them in the form of the sky striken with blood, and the atmosphere tensed with misfortune.
