OOC
Hanging back Alister saw Sidra making her way towards the courthouse, though she stopped often to look around herself, her expression worried. He was tempted to go back for her, and escort her into the courthouse himself, but before he could a woman he didn't recognize came to her aid, and he forcibly turned himself around to enter the courthouse on his own. It was enough to battle the winds on his own, not to mention Sidra's lover might be around here somewhere. Alister reminded himself of the last time he'd spoken with Sidra. It hadn't been pleasant, and he was almost certain that he was the last person she wanted to see.
They were to settle down for the storm in one of the rooms, but Alister hadn't yet claimed a room for himself, he figured maybe one of the storage rooms would do? But before he could settle himself down he heard his name being called by the Sole. Russet ears twitched and he turned tail immediately. "You called?" He queried, expression worried and body tense. There was urgency in the man's accented voice, and he was anxious to hear what he had to say. What the man spoke of nearly stopped his heart. Hazel eyes widened in shock. But he'd just seen Hadley, and Amatha...She was just a pup. His gaze fell, he should have checked, he should have known, if he hadn't been so preoccupied worrying over Sidra this wouldn't have happened. Why had he? She was a liar and a thief, he shouldn't have even bothered.
He took a breath to steel himself and glanced up at his Sole. "We'll find them." Alister assured, glancing over at Ismeme. He did his best to keep his voice even, though his body was tensed and his stomach was in knots. The storm was raging outside their walls, and soon enough they'd be right in the middle of it. He looked over the men surrounding him, the realization striking him that their lives were in each other's hands. He deposited his satchel in the hall, but kept his shield with him. Perhaps it would even come in handy. He followed the Sole as he ascended the stairs.
