Bab 101: Empty?

In the silver city, specifically in the hospital, Carol and her group stood in a white hallway, waiting visibly worried for the doctor to come out and inform them about the condition of their companion.

Because the instructor had brought Tessa directly to the hospital, they didn't had a chance to see her, only being able to wait outside.

However, just by the fact that they had to wait, they knew that her condition was anything but healthy.

At this moment, Iza was having a conflict within herself, as the leader of the group, her task, while most of the time it was to guide her companions, that also included the duty of not putting them in unnecessary danger and looking out for their safety.

Various thoughts like, 'If only I had been more careful...' or similar went through her head, but the bitter feeling of guilt inside her would not go away no matter how much she regretted it, something that was only made worse knowing that she was the leader.
