When Damian woke up, an entire day had passed. He had stabilized the Dreamlight, supplying it with a continuous flow of mana from his lone liquid mana container. His few mana threads had kept it powered while he was unconscious.
His mana sense quickly picked up Reize, along with Lumi and Elias, in the seating compartment. A few Highswords were there as well. Without hesitation, he left the control room and walked toward them. They were cleaning. Lifewarden, Mindseer, Reize, and his two squires—all of them were busy washing down the seating area, cloths tied over their faces. The space had become noticeably clean; the stench was gone, and there were no longer any traces of the corpses.
