With the celebrations regarding Freya and Gideon's Ritual of Marking winding down, most of the guests had already left to return to their respective homes. Xenia and Darius, along with their men and entourage, however, were still in the Everett Mansion to stay the night before they left for their own respective journeys tomorrow morning.

"I should go too then," Jayra sighed as she glared at Bartos. "Goodness, I can't believe he knocked himself out like that!"
