Talia finally spoke up after letting out a quiet breath. "Alright. I agree with you, Nyx. You all should retire for the day as soon as possible and unwind for a few hours before sleeping, letting you get mentally ready for tomorrow."
"But," Talia continued, lifting a finger to keep the attention, "before we wrap this up properly, I want to say something."
Her gaze swept across the table, lingering on faces both familiar and new. "We may only be eighth in the competition right now, but I, for one, am content with how today went. We kept every single member alive, that's already a great feat both Tessa and I are thrilled about. Furthermore, we gained a lot of levels across the board. Our alliance grew stronger in a single day, and our rookies showed real promise out there."
The change was immediate.
