Portal To The Land Of The Mad

The group was left perplexed because it seemed like Raze's absence was completely out of the blue for them. For a moment, none of them moved, thinking that they might see Raze. Safa was even trying to shout, calling out for him, but with just a few grunts, the noise didn't travel far.

Not wishing for Safa to strain anymore, Simyon shouted on her behalf.

"Raze!" Simyon yelled. "Raze!" He shouted out again, but there was no response at all.

"Maybe we should do as he said," Dame said, trying to break the awkward silence. "I believe Raze is a person that thinks before he speaks, and he stated that we should go ahead, which means that he will definitely meet us back at the academy."

This wasn't just words spoken to give confidence to the others; this was the honest truth. Dame knew that Raze still had a lot to do, and besides, without him, what was he meant to do? He would then be stuck here, trying to figure a way out of the whole situation.
