Whimpers in unison with whispers traveled from every end of the coliseum. Desperate sniffles came from frightened young ones and complaints from adults that wanted to leave immediately.

"I urge you all to remain calm and stay where you are. Do not be afraid young and promising students, those good hunters and guardians are here only for your protection not to hurt you." Rufus told the young men and women. His gaze roamed around. "You all know that the academy has been infested with traitors, I have hunted many but a few still remain.

Not every traitor has made a deal, some just sold information for money and others took advantage of the chaos and confusion to do harm to our brothers and sisters. For that reason, I decided that this year before we bring in new students we must clean up the academy completely.
