Back at the Convel Society, Nathan was already hard at work trying his best not to let the Society slip out of his grasp before he was ready to abdicate. Already, he had put out more fires than he could count, and yet a few more still managed to pop out and ruin his mood every once in a while. And of course, one of these many fires was the Emergency Meeting that the Elders had told him to come and attend.
"This better not be what I think it's about…"
Taking a small breath, Nathan's thought briefly went to Raine and whatever it was she was doing out there. Hopefully, she was having a far better time than he would have trying to placate these stubborn Elders. He could already see it: them trying to bicker and insist on him doing what was best for the Convel Society as a whole. And while he indeed wanted that to happen, he also still put Raine's well-being at the top of his priority.
'Time to face the music,' he inwardly thought.
