Kapitel 30: Guilt

The Rose

"My lord, you really wish to stay at the finishing point?" Phillip asks for the third time in the hour. 

"I have said twice before and will say again now, Phillip." I narrow my eyes as I look down at him, "I will observe the festival from here." 

Pillip's stoic expression falters under my gaze, "My apologies, my Lord." 

I avert my gaze from him and scan the area once more. Another two hours to go before the first-day ends. Many of the students have managed to come past the upside-down surface and among them, Edward and Erick are the very first people who have gotten past the dark lake. Now I am waiting for Lush. I am wondering what has become of the young prince. Seraphina is not here as well.
