The discussion among the Twilight Wardens continued for several hours. By the time it had concluded, it was way past midnight.
Adam was the first to leave. It had been a long and hectic day for him, and he desperately needed to get some shut-eye.
With so much that had happened and the things that he had gone through in a single day, he wished he could forget about it momentarily as he went into a deep slumber.
After bidding farewell to his students, Daneli, Elrod, and Krummor, he left the secret base. But not before briefly speaking with Kenelm Bowman, who said he wished to talk with him privately the following day.
Adam agreed, then vanished into the stormy night. There were a lot of things on his mind, and he wished to spend some time alone.
