Not by the Rules

Later in the night, the square was empty. 

Most participants had gone to rest in their respective rooms, and prepare for the last day of the event, leaving the entire area as quiet as a cemetery.

By the time Nilo and the others had retired to their rooms, the group of a hundred cultivators that was part of the Charmer's group had raised to a hundred and twenty. Twenty of which seemed to have willingly joined their group after just after exchanging a few words with the original members.

In the middle of the night, no sound could be heard except for a few feeble stepping noises in the hallways of the buildings, right outside a few of the rooms. After many hours, the complete silence was interrupted by an ever so slight creak of doors, each of them leading into the rooms of Nilo's group members, or Romah's students.
