Caley Giantfinder fell to his knees, weeping uncontrollably

"Calamity…why?! Just why?! No! I cannot lose anymore! Why? Why? Why me? Why my family?" The sobbing conjurer wept.

"I want to die! I want to die!"

Nyar quickly covered Arthur's ears while the Skycaller burst out crying. Nyar sat in an empty chair, with Arthur sitting in his lap. Ryan quickly pulled out his right hand and slapped the crying boy forcefully on the cheek.

"Oi, brat, stop it," the conjurer cried in a raspy, forceful voice.

"Why should I?! I've lost my mother when I was six! I despise my own father, because he cheated on my poor mother! I hate my own stepfamily! I…I…have nobody left! Who do you think I am? I have family who looks at me funny! I have nobody else! I…took care of my siblings…it was just me, Calamity, and our baby brother Caleb," Caley replied by attempting to slap the Mythsword on the cheek. His arm was met by Thomas' arm, because Sunglade wasn't about to let a lowly conjurer hit his own cousin.

"Don't ever try that," Thomas then slapped Caley on the other cheek. "Besides, we found your brother, Giantfinder—Come on in."

Another conjurer appeared nervously after opening the door. Little Caleb Giantfinder, a newly found novice conjurer, entered the room with red eyes. He hadn't slept, and he had been weeping over his sister's death.

"Ca-Caleb?" Caley inquired.

"Big brother!" The young boy ran into his brother's arms.

"Lo! I've got one last relative," Caley replied a bit more happily.

"I think we should go to sleep. Tomorrow's Saturday, and we're gonna be meeting behind Bartleby, the Great Tree," Thomas added.

Then Professor Drake entered, "Mr. Caley."

Caley got up with "Yes sir!"

"I'm moving Caleb from his dorm to yours. I think that this will help both of you, yes?"

"Thank you, sir!"

"You are most welcomed, little Caleb! I hope to see you in class."

"Yes, Professor. I'll see you then," Caleb said as he exited the room.

"You four will join them, alright?"

"Yes, sir! We shall not flag or fail," the Mythsword-Sunglade-Skycaller team replied before leaving to join their new allies.

The city of Wizard City was effectively under a curfew. All of the students, in particular, were to be in bed by nine o' clock at night and not to leave their dorms until five thirty in the morning. However, nights like this were actually slight exceptions to the rules. If an incident occurred, the required students were to be pulled out into the darkness to see the assigned personnel.

"Hey guys, I am going to our superiors to see if I can have all of us stay at my place, at the Balance House! I have it because of my awesome girlfriend, Destiny Balancesword," Ryan added.

"We can have girlfriends?" Caleb commented.

"Yeah, if you and a witch are really close friends, it happens. You see, little guy, if you get to rescue a girl during a duel in the world and make friends with her, you can eventually sync up! Typically, it takes some time for the syncing to actually come into effect," Ryan chuckled.

Ryan left for only five minutes, returning to say, "Nailed it! We're all staying at my place! I am going to build more defenses for the place. Tom, do you want to assist me?"

"Not a problem!" Thomas said.

The entire squadron mounted their grand flying pegasi, and they flew over to the new housing.

Destiny was there, awaiting patiently with the other ladies.

"So then, Caleb Giantfinder! We found you a journeyman, a witch. Her name is Sarai Moonheart, a theurgist. You two will be touring Wizard City on Monday," Destiny smiled cheerfully.
