"…I can't wait to get out of this place."
"Same. The heat. It's really starting to get to me."
"Well, it's not much different in the Empire. As far as I'm concerned, summer is just about starting. If you think this heat is bad, wait until we get back. It may be hot here, but at least it's dry. Over there…? It's as humid as it can get."
Groans rippled through the crowd as several cadets visibly winced, their expressions twisting in discomfort. Some even looked around with a change in expression, as if thinking this place wasn't that bad after all.
"Thinking about it, 'he' isn't here, so it might not be too bad if we stay here any longer."
"Oh, you're right."
By 'he', they were referring to Julien. Not everyone was aware of his 'death', and as such, they still took their time to mention his 'jinx' like abilities, and how whenever he was present, they all ended up suffering.
