Imali dipped her head knowingly, then glanced toward the other doors, furrowing her brow.

“Ivar, Tadaaki and his family, Lyra and Gaius, and I are fine. I’m checking on everyone else.” Her list grew with each room.

Imali nodded again and stepped out, still holding Ua.
Ivar brushed past them after seeing May wasn't answering the door, heading upstairs toward the sixth floor.

Ky nodded. “Do you want me to stay? Or go?”

She shrugged.
"Stay," Ua sniffled in Natai.

“Okay.” Ky smiled gently. “That was a little scary, wasn’t it? You’re so brave for making it through!”

"It was really, really scary," she agreed, wiping her eyes. "What was it?"

“It’s called an earthquake. It’s when…” she realized she had no idea whatsoever as to what caused it. “Things shake. But then they stop and everything is okay. It may do it again but probably not. And we’re all gonna be okay even if it does. We know what it’s like this time.”

“I don’t know,” Ky said thoughtfully. “Probably not though. I think this just happens sometimes.”

"That was bad. I hated it." She held onto Imali tighter.

“I did too,” Ky agreed. “It scared me.”

"Is Tasia and Mattathias and Marcella and Regulus okay?" she asked. "Did they get hurt?"

“Tasia is okay,” Ky answered with a nod. “I haven’t seen the others but I’m sure they are too.”

She wasn’t sure. She felt like she should go check on them. But she also felt like that would necessitate seeing Gaius again. And now she remembered they weren’t friends right now. It felt like the crisis reconciliation was gone now. “Their Papa was going to check on them.”

Maybe she could do a run-by check. Set her own mind to ease. While also avoiding Gaius except for a few seconds.

"Okay." She nodded, satisfied. "Where are we going?"
