When Cole returned to the 3rd floor, his orchard was ready to be harvested, but he was neither in the mood or the right frame of mind to take things slow by dealing with mundane tasks. So with only Delarosa and Neral in tow, Cole left his territory heading for the boundary of the Glade. So far he was probably the only member of Glade solitude that had not left the Glades boundary yet to see what the outside world looks like.
Of course Farida tried her hardest to convince him about a different course of action, but if he stayed a second with solitude then he would lose his bloody mind. His family had left him with quite a lot to think about, everything Kaito had said was bullshit, and there was every possibility he was being led into a trap, and it was not the trap itself that was worrying, but the idea that his family would still be scheming to bring about his downfall….. it was heartbreaking.
