As the group continued their conversation, Cedric's eyes flicked towards the new faces at the table. Curiosity getting the better of him, he asked, "Are these your new friends?"
"Yeah, they're our classmates," Arthur replied casually, then proceeded to introduce everyone around the table.
The conversation flowed smoothly, and despite Nadia's initial reserved nature, she began to open up more. She was still conservative, but it was a step in the right direction. Everyone was getting along well over their meal, sharing laughs and stories.
After the meal, Cedric leaned back in his chair, eyeing the time. "So, Arthur, what are your plans after this? We still have some time until dawn."
Arthur considered it for a moment, then replied, "I was thinking of heading to the library."
"What?" Cedric raised an eyebrow in disbelief. "I thought we were supposed to have some fun ."
