After Marcy left the study, others agreed to meet in about one hour before dispersing.
James didn't have much to do, so he decided to head to his room.
Dawn and George went to their room, Caden stayed behind with Talia and Damon, and Maya lingered in the hallway on the second floor while checking something on her phone.
James didn't expect to see Petra, Erik, and Zack in the lounge area at the bottom of the stairs on the main floor of the packhouse.
"You are still here?", James asked. They were supposed to go to Darkbourne and wait for him there.
Zack spread his arms. "As you can see. We got delayed, and then thought of just hanging out here until you are done, so we can all go together."
James was glad that his friends were waiting for him, but… "I will be at least one more hour."
