"What's going on?" Felix took in our anxious expressions in the Great Room.

"Amos is sick," Kyra lied quickly before anyone could have an opportunity to strike panic in the mansion, "but Jaz is looking into getting him out of the funk."

"Oh, like a cold?" Felix continued.

"Yes, definitely a cold," Carter replied. "And it's made him pretty tired too."

I could barely focus on the meeting once I noticed his breathing pattern was far too heavy and yet strangled at the same time. But you have to hand it to Amos for being a perfect little actor, or maybe it was just the leaders not truly giving a shit about the Chief Lector. Jaz's angry rant worried me further. How did he survive if it is as bad as she made it sound?

"Why did he show up to the meeting then if he was sick?" Cleo asked as her eyebrows rose.

"Well, he's Chief Lector. They won't let him get away with missing a meeting for the common cold," Kyra informed. "They'll throw a hissy fit, and there just will be no end to it."

"Oh, poor Amos," Felix empathized.

Everyone nodded in agreement. Felix managed to distract a good portion of the initiates with the penguins running freely in the mansion. This left Kyra, Carter, and I waiting for news from Jaz. "Nothing yet?" Walt asked.

Kyra nodded and gestured him to sit next to her. "Did you catch anything about what happened?" She asked.

"The Greeks with him said that he just irritated the giant a little and was simply flicked into a cave wall. Ribs crushed from the front and back is what Jaz reported," Walt spoke grimly. "One of them also mentioned killing the giant with a God, and I have a bad feeling it may have been Set."

"What makes you think that?" Carter asked.

"They were nervous around Amos, like he was a bomb about to blow up at any given time," Walt clarified.

Alarmed silence was shared between the four of us. "So, he got flicked and is practically on his death bed?' I asked for clarification. "And Set may have taken advantage and possessed Amos while he was in such a weak state?"

"Amos might have let him," Carter suggested, "to not be completely helpless during the fight, I mean."

Kyra nodded in agreement, "I'm certain that is what happened, or at least something similar to it."

Five minutes passed when Jaz came down the stairs and nodded towards us. "Okay, I think our problem is over. Going to wait until morning and see how he feels though to make certain."

"Is he sleeping then?" Kyra asked to make certain.

Jaz huffed out of exhaustion. "I had to force him to before I could do anything," she confirmed. "So everyone should just get some shut eye, and we'll see tomorrow morning."
