The silence lasted just long enough for me to lower my head before the cameras started again. The reporters all looked at me with weird expressions.
"Stuck where? Were you inside the Gate?"
"Seth, did you rescue the people behind you?"
"Can you explain why nobody was informed that you were here?"
I raised one hand and waved, only for several microphones to move closer. Someone nearly stepped on my foot while another reporter leaned around him, trying to get her camera in front of the others.
"...There's no need to push. I'm not going anywhere."
"Then can you tell us what happened?"
"Well, I was—"
"Did you encounter Claude's team inside?"
"Yes, but—"
"Are they seriously injured?"
I looked towards the bodies behind me, where Guild personnel had finally started moving through the crowd. One crouched beside Claude while another brought a stretcher closer, forcing several reporters to move out of the way.
