I woke the next morning to Fazio's gentle nudge, having slept through first and second bell. His face carried an air of anticipation, and I knew we were both thinking the same thing: what had Selahe done about Rosalia?
"The Ravens are preparing to leave," he whispered. "Everyone's gathering in the front courtyard."
I dressed quickly, my mind racing through possibilities. Had Selahe threatened her? Bribed her? Or something more permanent? The thought made my stomach twist uncomfortably. Despite her information-gathering, I didn't wish Rosalia harm.
When we reached the courtyard, the adventurers were already loading their packs onto horses. Niklas and Divo laughed about something while Su Ye'un methodically checked her weapons. Erika chatted with my mother and Anna, who had apparently stayed the night.
