    Summary

    He swears he can smell burning trees, burning flesh, stark against the crisp cold of fresh snow. He can hear the howl of beasts, noise that always seems to echo through his dormitory even after he wakes from a nightmare. Olruggio knows it's not the same, knows the harbor is miles and years from Noz. And yet. And yet.

    The specifics are lost to him–which twists and turns brought him here, how far away he’s run from the harbor, what finally buckled his knees and brought him down to meet the cool stone of a narrow alley.

    In Noz, he’d sought higher ground.

    or: Olruggio's past catches up to him, but Qifrey isn't far behind.

    Summary

    Olruggio just so happened to wander into the kitchen during the dead of night when he caught a sight most curious.

    That of... the room lit only by the full moon's gleam, and a single pyreball lit on the centre of the dining table.

    Qifrey was seated with a cup of tea abandoned before him. He had his cheeks held in his hands, his elbows propped upon the table, and his narrowed eye affixed to the spell as though it were whispering to him the very secrets of the stars.

    How... bizarre.

    Even for him.

    "Uhm, Qifrey? Are you with it?"

    Qifrey learns to relax by staring at pyreballs. He falls into a trance, which Olruggio aids him through.
