There was absolutely nothing to do at all. Nothing, at least, which wasn't against the rules or otherwise too boring. Eventually I was so desperate for something to do that I settled for anything which was legal, no matter how boring it was. I took a walk as far as my legs would carry me, around every room of the cathedral and then outside. The old paving slab of our ballcourt was towards the end of my route, and as I drew nearer I wondered if 1 would be angry at my even being there. On the other hand, I hadn't seen him anywhere inside the cathedral; so perhaps he and 8 were out in the Emptiness, for a reason I couldn't think of.
Presently I came to the corner around which lay our paving slab. I was about to turn the corner when I heard noises ahead of me. Cautiously I poked my head around the brick, just enough so that my one optic could see out.
The strangest scene met my optic, and I ran silently back to the cathedral. Inside I skidded to a halt next to 7 who was looking at one of 6's drawings.
"7. You HAVE to see this," I exclaimed.
"Why? Is it serious? A Cat Beast?"
She shot into action and within seconds her skullmet and spear were in her hands.
"No, it's not a Cat Beast. Come and see." By now the others had gathered, interested.
"And you guys can come along too."
