"Am I really
Useless to them
I wanted to help
So, I can
Keep them safe
But, I failed
Didn't I?"

▓There was an eerie silence which encompasses the darkness. It was constricting and extremely cold. There was a deafening sound, one much like of a scream, but of what and of whom. That was left as a mystery for it ceased as light began to illuminate through the opened eyes of the rather infamous resident doctor of the Bastion. Moirae was finally awaken from her rather uncomfortable slumber. She seemed to have spent her time at the library present within the Calloway Mansion. She had been far too engrossed in her work that she did not mind the passing of time. And thus, she slept on her chair with her head upon the desk. She was quite used to such scenarios already.

Mauve-colored eyes blinked a couple of times to adjust to the brightness. She gazed at the windows which allowed the entry of sunlight, bathing the room with such morning brilliance. Morning has truly come, so it seems. She stretched her arms and her body, much like how a cat would do and then glanced at the scattered documents and books on the table in front of her. She was actually doing some research about runic symbols connected with the use of dark powers. This was all in relation to that incident of Ansel and Margaret. The mere remembrance of it made her radiate gloom like none other. Her hands slowly lowered to her side as it was clenched into fists. She couldn't save them. She couldn't save him. All she could do was declare them dead and find the cause of death, even at the point, there was no clarity provided. She felt so inadequate at that point. "I'm sorry... so sorry..." She murmured to herself and bit her lower lip in anguish, but not enough to make it bleed.

Taking a moment to steel herself, she shook the guilt and the sadness. After so, she took a deep breath and collected the papers she had found some references in.

She could continue this later since, she would need to attend her primary duty, and that is being the doctor of the Bastion's Blight Hunters. But before that, she was going to need to fix herself up and then have some breakfast to start the day. With that in mind, she stopped at her room which was also in the Calloway Mansion, she had been living with them since she had lost her parents. She did her morning rituals and made sure that she is acceptable to her eyes. She then left her room for the dining hall. It seemed that the Calloway's patriarch was already there along with the others. "Good morning, everyone." She offered her greeting and took her seat at the table. The maids attended to her immediately with a smile. There was no need to ask her what she will be having for breakfast as she will always have the same every morning. Before her, a simple salad with fresh-squeezed orange juice were presented, she offered her thanks to them. Then proceeded to eat her breakfast, she didn't offer small talk and simply listened to the conversation.

The only time she did speak was when the Calloway patriarch decided to leave them on their own. "Uncle" She called out to the older male, it had been what she calls him since long ago. "I have something I want to discuss with you." The man was notified and gave her a short nod to imply, that he will be waiting for her. She offered a small smile of appreciation and then glanced towards Lonan, Matrim, and Emilio who had been told to go to some brothel. Then, there was a conversation between the three boys as she shook her head a bit. She was not concerned about Emilio coming along, he was a Blight Hunter even if as a trainee. He had proven himself. "This would be a good experience for Emilio. It would also give you Lonan a sense of responsibility and Matrim do make sure the two do not go overboard. My one request for you three are to stay unharmed." She then flashed them a rather gentle yet dark smile. before continuing. "Don't make me worry too much, okay?"

After saying that, she continued with her meal until there was a knock heard. There were two possibilities of who could that be. But, that was not much of a concerned for her at the moment. As it is, she continued with her meal. There were still a lot of things she would need to take a look at. Then, she would need to have that talk with Uncle. For now, she was having her breakfast, just like any other day, but really, it wasn't like that at all.
