A few hours had passed since they'd all agreed on their next steps; Jalen had completed the map, and as expected, nothing specially jade like had turned up.
In a way, it was good news if it had turned up directly. It'd have most likely been a trap, which meant they were actively being pursued.
Orion had chosen to lie in wait, not too far from their building; if Falad showed up, he'd subdue him- hopefully easily- and question him.
Arlen and Thaddeus had gone in search of the jade, while Selene and Erevan had gone for Gaf and their leader.
Seris sat cross-legged in the room with her eyes closed. Not too far from her position, Jalen lay asleep; he had completed his task, and now he was resting ahead of any confrontation.
She felt restless, whether out of concern for her friends or frustration of being left behind, even she wasn't sure.
She consoled herself with the thought that somehow, someway, she would get some action, but for now she was on house duty.
