Adara was no less distressed when she reached the Jewellery Shop than she had been when she'd left the library. She'd had time to think since then, and had been able to come to not a single conclusion, only more worry that those she knew were sadistic beneath the surface, as Quinn had told her.
She had her full book bag with her, a rare occasion, as she was normally unable to concentrate on studying with Emilian so close. Nothing of the fire between them had faded since the addition of her ring. If anything, possibly due to the long months in Germany, it had increased again.
She was chewing her lip when she reached the living room, a habit that Emilian had tried gently to rid her of, but for this disturbance, she hardly thought of that.

Emilian was just now getting used to being home again. It had been nice, but strange. He had gotten so used to the way of life in Germany that it had been hard switching back to living above his shop again. Though, he did get to see Adara practically whenever he wanted to, so that helped tremendously with the transition. "I thought you weren't going to get out of the school for another couple of hours," he said when he realized Adara was already home.

Adara's hand smoothed down the front of her skirt as she moved into the room. "I met someone in the library," she began, thinking through her words carefully. She set her bag beside a table, unsure even what to ask first. "She told me how many people... are given no rights and murdered, and that people enjoy breaking laws and doing this, but I was so confused!" And frightened, terribly frightened. Adara's worry showed on her face, and when she wrapped her arms around herself. She hadn't withdrawn yet, but if she'd heard much more from Quinn, she likely would have, to shut it all out.

Emilian repressed a sigh at that and stood to come to her. She knew those things, didn't she? She at least knew that he had broken the law and hadn't really ever felt bad about it, right? But he knew better than to expect her to know. "There are bad people," he said, conveniently self-editing out the fact that he was one. "But that doesn't mean you should worry about it."

"I know of sadistic, Emilian," Adara said, "but I did not know that there were so many! If everyone is like this, they cannot all change, can they? I do not want Michael and Dare to be murdered!" Adara knew how Emilian felt about Michael and Dare, but she could not help the example, the same one that Quinn had used. She had been in Britain for only a year and a half, and though she had not seen such things happen as such, she realized that there was much she still didn't know. Who else was different enough to be killed for it?

Emilian wasn't sure what was going on, who the hell had she been talking to? "They aren't going to be murdered," he said, though he knew they had gone through enough at school to force them out of their dorms. "And...everyone isn't like that, you're not like that, are you?" She had come to him with some strange questions before, but he didn't know how to deal with this at all.
