August 23rd, XXXX, Before departing the Aldrich Guild...

It was the next day, around 10am in the morning, Blake and Blazera were getting to head into the arctic, and Blake was dressed in many layers of clothing when Blazera stopped him.

Blazera> "Why are you dressed like that? Just wear what you normally wear. I can warm you up."

Blake> "So you have the ability to regulate other people's temperatures?"

Blazera> "I'm a fire wizard… obviously."

Blake> "Alright, I'll put it all away."
Blake went back to his room to take off his layers and to put on something more casual.

Shashin> "And where are you going?"

Blake> "Someone is up early."

Shashin> "With all the noise you're making, anyone could be awake."

Blake> "Me and Blazera are going on a trip?"

Shashin> "To Irina? You look dressed for it."

Blake> "You could say I'm paying a visit to my brother."

Shashin> "Right… sure he will be ecstatic about that."
Shashin was suspicious of them but decided not to pry.

Blake> "I want to explain everything to him."

Shashin> "It's about time, don't expect him to forgive you so easily."

Blake> "I don't need forgiveness, I need understanding."
Just like that, Blake left back to the entrance of Aldrich with Blazera.

Blake> "Shall we go?"

Solaris> "Wait!"

Blazera> "What is it, Solaris?"

Solaris> "Just be safe… don't make me worry."

Blazera> "You know you don't have to worry about me. We'll be back soon."

Solaris> "Right… I'll cya."
She seemed sad about Blazera's departure.

Blazera> "Goodbye."

Fin> "See ya both!"

Johnathan> "Have a safe trip!"

Ren> "See you soon."

Blake> "Let's get going. This will be a long journey."
And just like that, they left on their way there, by foot so that barely any evidence that they went to Irina was there.

Solaris> "I know she's my Sensei and all, but I still do worry about her."

Fin> "It's only natural to worry about someone you care about."

Solaris> "I suppose that's true."
Shashin entered the room, since he was basically woken up by Blake.

Ren> "Someone is up early."

Shashin> "Yeah… no kidding."
He seemed a bit grumpy about being woken up.

Ren> "Not a great awakening I see…"

Shashin> "I've spent the whole night thinking about all that's happened, trying to make sense of it all."

Johnathan> "Oh goodness… and such a young boy worrying about this. You can leave this to the adults-"

Shashin> "I can't simply do that."

Ren> "Shashin is a brilliant kid, you shouldn't underestimate him for his age."
