~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~It was early when Iliana woke up. First thing she registered was how hungry she was. It was then she remembered the events of yesterday. Shuddering, she felt those horrible images come through again. She still couldn't believe she killed someone and almost killed others. Her mind kept trying to tell herself that they were accidents, but she remember the feelings that came, she wanted to hurt those who either hurt her or others. Ashamed, she was lost in thought when her stomach growled loudly. Working on automatic, she got up and saw the clock, seeing how early it was. She didn't know what to do. Well, food was first on the agenda. She figured Heath and Ethan were either out and about or still asleep. Not wanting to see either of them at the moment, she was fine with either scenario. She took a shower and got changed before going into the living room and didn't see either of the guys. They would have left a note if they went somewhere. Iliana saw the locator stone on a counter too. So they were probably asleep. Grabbing the locator stone, she still left them a note, more out of habit at the moment. It said the following-

I want to be alone, so I am taking the locator stone with me. Sorry for being a burden.

Lia.

With that she left the cabin and headed for the main hall. No one was there at the moment, thank goodness. But then she turned and saw Sylas in a corner. Looks like she wasn't the only one who wanted to be alone. Wanting to eat in silence herself, she got some breakfast and ate far from Sylas herself.

Nelly had awaken early herself and decided to get some early morning photography done before getting breakfast. The morning light was often the best and taking pictures was a good distraction for Nelly was still thinking about yesterday. She knew she would move on for it, but with tensions high in camp still, that might be easier said then done. When she heard her stomach growl, she headed for the main hall. First person she saw was Iliana, who was in view of the entrance, despite being in a corner. Smiling, she waved at the blonde, but Iliana wasn't paying attention. From the looks of it, the girl still look broken. Nelly honestly didn't know how to help her. Still, she decided to check on her regardless for she didn't have the heart to ignore her.

"Hey, where are Heath and Ethan? Did you get a good night sleep?"

Iliana looked at the redhead and shrugged. It was then Nelly noticed she didn't bring her notepad or notebook. Did she not want to talk then? Or did she simply forget. Either way, Nelly wasn't finished.

"Hey about yesterday, I know you've been through hell, but just remember there are still people who care about you. I would rely on my mom for strength. You have Heath and Ethan and your own mother. So I guess what I am trying to say is you're not alone okay?"

Iliana nodded, but the words didn't reach her. She was too broken on the inside to truly listen. She didn't know if she could ever forgive herself for her actions, even if others did. It be better if she just left everyone be. Finishing, she got up, took her silverware to the back, and left, without even waving to Nelly.

This hurt Nelly, but she wouldn't let it get to her. Getting her own breakfast, she was about to sit down when she saw Sylas. He looked miserable. Many questions stirred in her head. Deciding to see if Sylas would answer any of them, Nelly approached him and sat down with her food.

"Morning, have you recovered from your injuries yet? Question for you, would you really kill all us just to please your mother? I would hope not. You probably enjoy causing some chaos, since you are a son of Eris, but I am sure even you have your limit. I would appreciate it if you were honest with me this time. You're a bit of an enigma you know." Nelly said.

When Iliana left the main hall, she decided to head for the forest area. Woods always made her at ease. She doubt anyone would find her there. Decision made, she headed in that direction.
