"Thank you, Detective." Atlantis told her with a faint smile, at least that was one box ticked off from their mutual list so to speak. As for the last time they had seen one another, yes that was precisely that time. While perhaps Nazani had not fully gotten over what had happened that night with everything that had transpired, he could not help but to wonder if she had come to terms with had happened to her personally that night, not just with the loss of her former partner, but also some officers, while they did lose two Jedi too, Atlantis at first had definitely been in rage about the loss of a dear friend of his, while he didn't know the other Jedi as well as he knew Serrin, it had been a blow to him but over time he had come to terms with it, and even saw Lyov's progress and had been on his path of redemption.
Today it definitely showed Atlantis that.
He had stopped being suspicious a long time ago, and no longer bore ill will to the Epicanthix. Plus the AI that had been integrated into the Academy also gave him a sense of closure.
Lifting his hand to let her know that she did not need to look apologetic, at all, he had offered the MO's assistance, and willingly too. Atlantis frowned in confusion at first when Nazani referred to Ayodele as it then corrected herself but then his frown grew even deeper about where her body was found but also the cause of her death. He opened his mouth briefly looking confused at the way she had been killed, because that was the whole point there, her body was found in the Mountains and she was shot at the back of her head. Shaking his head, and looking genuinely surprised even moreso when he was told that she was Anzat.
"For having spent some time with her back then, I have never felt any belligerent emotion or even any suspicious behavior from her." Atlantis said truthfully before glancing at Mace, to confirm what she was saying about Franz. "Further than that, Crystal, Lily, and Elika also spent some time with her, she had been invited to a pool party at the residence the Chief Financial Officer, Attorney General, and Master Architect share. And if there is one thing I know about those three women, they know how to read people and are good judges of character." Scratching the back of his head and sighing, mostly before he knew that most probably it would be a blow to his cousin, it's not that they were close, at least they were getting there, and Franz was genuinely worried about her disappearance. "You reckon it was someone seeking revenge, as that execution style definitely sounds personal to me..."
And like Mace said he had not heard anyone being drained of their life Force here on this planet, and who better than the Kiffars would know since they were very protective of Mace too in general, especially when it came to an Anzat or Anzati in general...

It was one thing being under the impression that Ayodele had actually gone back to her homeworld quite abruptly for whatever reason, which he had accepted, or at least potentially had come to terms with. She had her reasons, everyone always did and he did not judge or assume right away. But it was another thing to be given this type of news, which he had hoped would never come, and instead Ayodele would contact him again when able. But back then in the pit of his stomach he knew something had been wrong. His messages to her had gone unanswered...
Feeling Cleite's hand on his forearm, Franz looked at her gratefully but he also knew that whatever she would be revealing to him, was not going to be good. And that revelation made him look at the detective with conflict but also anger, anger that he easily reigned in, but he also did not understand at all. Ayodele was just nice, and everything about her demeanor soothed him. He always was looking forward to seeing her, but unfortunately that did not progress further with her disappearance.
Lifting his hand and nodding, knowing that he definitely needed to sit down for this. Franz did walk over to the bench and leaned forward placing his arms on his legs. "I..." Truly at a loss for words, sure he did not know Ayodele as much but he knew enough to know that she was a person that he saw as peaceful, or at least just chill overall. And she was his massage therapist that one time!
Rubbing his face and looking at Cleite more with determination this time than anything else because he did not want to leave this hanging at all. "Now is a good time, detective." He told her, even if what had just happened recently here at the Academy might have told her otherwise, but he had preferred to just at least get to the bottom of this. "What do you need to know?" Franz asked her sincerely though he wasn't sure how he could actually help her further than what he might have given in that missing person report a few years ago...

"Glad to hear that, Nazani tells Mace with a sincere smile, waving a hand at the damage being repaired by DUM droids in the stairs and other areas of the entrance hall as she says, All the damage had me a little worried for you all and your students. Resuming a more serious expression as Mace states that Ibori had never harmed Delgrave, Nazani nods and, with a little smile that suggests she shares Mace's sentiments about the Anzati in general, shares after Mace says that she doesn't recall any recent deaths being attributed to an Anzat, We looked back through reports of suspicious deaths in the time since it . . . er, Ibori immigrated to Umgul, and didn't find any cases, cold or otherwise, that match what we'd expect to see from an Anzat attack," her tone not so subtly hinting at her belief that might only mean Ibori had concealed her killings well enough to avoid detection.
Nazani waves a hand to suggest Atlantis has no need to thank her, then nods and takes a few notes as he relies to what she had told him and Mace. "That fits with what her employer and co-workers at TaSpa! told us, Nazani replies after Atlantis has shared his impressions of Ibori, pursing her lips as she starts to think her prejudices about Anzati are threatening her objectivity and tries to set them aside. Tapping her datapad against her thigh as she considers how to reply to Atlantis’ question about motives for Ibori's murder, Nazani says, Revenge is one of the angles we're looking at, deciding to share that with the Jedi since there doesn't seem any reason to treat them the same way she would treat the press or a regular civvie, and then adds, Bounty is another possibility we're considering, explaining, every now and then we'll see what we call monster hunting bounties placed on Anzati when one is suspected to be hunting on certain worlds. Sharing a few more details in case they give the Jedi ideas about other possible investigative avenues, Nazani explains, Whatever the motive, the killer or killers were highly organized and knowledgeable enough to avoid leaving much evidence behind. Ibori was stripped and almost certainly moved from the murder scene to avoid leaving any trace evidence behind, and then buried in a remote enough location that if it weren't for the landslide that uncovered the grave, it might never have been found. If it was personal, the killer or killers didn't let that get in the way of covering up the crime."
Gardens
Cleite turns and moves a few feet away to pretend to appreciate the beauty of the gardens when Franz reacts with the expected shock and even a hint of understandable anger to the news he has possibly been expecting and dreading for some time now, giving the Jedi space and some degree of privacy to deal with what she has told him. Returning to a respectful distance when Franz speaks again, sounding more in control of his feelings now just as she would expect a Jedi to be, Cleite nods as she says in a compassionate tone, "I appreciate your willingness to help, Master Delgrave," not adding anything overly dramatic like how he could help her bring Ibori's killer or killers to justice as that has never been her style.
Taking a moment to decide how to proceed, Cleite decides to ease Franz into an understanding of all that the investigation has turned up so far, starting by asking, "How well would you say you knew Miss Ibori? Did she ever tell you anything about her life before she came to Umgul, for instance? Or mention any enemies? After giving a moment for those questions to sink in, Cleite asks, Did Miss Ibori mention thinking or noticing anyone following her before her disappearance? The reason I ask, Cleite explains, is that the manner of her death strongly suggests that Miss Ibori was killed for either revenge or as fulfillment of a bounty." Stopping there in case Franz is aware that Ibori was an Anzat, Cleite waits patiently for his replies, hands in the side pockets of her suit pants as she never takes notes while conducting interviews, having no need to do as she possesses an eidetic memory.

While indeed this sight might not have been common for an Academy, they had been under attack here, which had caused the AI integrated into the Academy’s system to take actions, and then there was Franz of course who did everything to prevent the Dark Siders to get closer to the students, after already two of them, or three if semantics were involved had fallen into its manipulation, or possession.
But the Academy was allowed some secrecy, and as far as Nazani needed to know now, everyone was fine, though she was grateful for the Lorrdian’s concern, which was why Mace smiled in appreciation.
On the topic of Ayodele, who Atlantis was better at filling the detective in, as far as his impression about the woman went for having met her. Mace trusted his judgment, just like she trusted some high-ranking members of the Government to know. Plus, knowing the Attorney General who never usually minced words when there was a particular person that was giving her a certain vibe, and Ljiljana wasn’t attuned to the Force too, she would have probably been the first one to say something about Ayodele.
Nonetheless, Mace understood Nazani’s sentiment there, about probably Ayodele knowing how to cover her tracks, but still Mace was not going to go into an assumption when she clearly did not know this particular Anzat’s life story, and 900 years of it. Perhaps . . .
“With the planet’s neutrality, but also the attraction it has been gaining throughout the years since we first came in, I wouldn’t be surprised if those said hunters as you call in came through ordinary ways, and probably did not raise any red flags as far as the planet’s sovereignty is concerned . . .” Said Mace thoughtfully, though yes there was indeed a Jedi order here, but they have never interceded on behalf of the government at all, let alone any of the civilian cases occurring in the planet. It had been the deal so to speak. The MO was here to train people in the ways of the Light Side of the Force, and if and when situation occurred that involved someone attuned to the Force, they’d step in, like they did previously.
Perhaps there was indeed something they could do, and even so, before offering, Mace would probably prefer to see what Franz had to say first. That situation though was probably something that would cause a ruckus on her side of chain of command. Massaging her forehead with her thumb and index finger, Mace took a deep breath.
“I’ll only do it if Franz wants to know . . .” Said Mace to Atlantis before dropping her hand, not a prospect at all she was looking forward, but if it helped Franz to get some closure, but also with the description from Nazani there, they might be put this situation under a cold case. “I have psychometry, and I usually despise using it on people, let alone corpses, but if Master Delgrave needs closure, which would give you an answer, I’ll do it.”
Not quite aware if Nazani knew what she was talking about, or knew what that power meant. But thusfar, at least to her knowledge, three people had that Force power, and two of them had it fully under control, unlike Ayla who had recently started to get some visions whenever she’d hold something.

Atlantis understood Nazani's reasoning, and while he had never had any close encounter with any Anzat like Mace did in her past, he wasn't prejudiced in thinking that Ayodele might have harmed someone here planetside, to him, that just was not true, he couldn't see that coming from her. Though again he did not know her as much truthfully, so he wouldn't probably qualify in actually giving out a full impression about her character, plus she was 900 years old. Perhaps her past definitely came to haunt her again.
"Be as that may, indeed. Under Umgul's laws, whomever that or those bounty hunters were, they have broken the law, as I assumed that Ayodele had immigrated here to perhaps leave her past behind." Plus was Umgul even allowing that sports game so to speak? That would be definitely surprising if it was authorized. And perhaps those said bounty hunters knew how to avoid detection, and probably the reason why they had disposed of Ayodele's body in a remote place, but as a lot of things, it turned out that they were uncovered eventually.
Although he was truly at a loss for words too, for he just honestly did not have the full picture either, whatever Ayodele did in her past, there was a big chance that potentially she had come to Umgul for a fresh start, because why not?
Glancing at Mace with an arched eyebrow, and actually understood a fraction of a second later what she meant. Atlantis inclined his head understanding what she meant. Technically Ayodele's death wasn't in the MO's purview so to speak, especially with the way she was killed, but it did concern Franz, and thus they could also look into it, and get some answers. But it happened so long ago, that the culprits were probably also gone by now, and Umgul's reach around the galaxy wasn't that wide.
"Of course, it's all up to him, but also thank you." He told her, not that he knew he needed to say it, and probably she'd tell him that it was no bother honestly. He understood it all the same, this was about Franz, a friend, family, and yes they were known to bend some rules also. Plus with Mace's ability, it would settle the whole thing, most probably. "I cannot do what she can do, touching an object, or a dead body, to see the memory that surrounded it, it's a Kiffar thing." Atlantis explained, and even if Mace had no visible markings on her face, she was half Kiffar, that much everyone knew here.

Franz waved his hand to let her know that she did not need to thank him at all, moreover truly he should be the one thanking her, which he did not hesitate to do. "I should be the one thanking you for looking into it, and telling me." Nodding considering this was settled at least, her thanking him, and him thanking her. He knew that she was doing her job too, but he appreciated her approach and how compassionate she had been thusfar.
Leaning back against the bench he was sitting on to look at her, and to actually show her that he was ready for her questions, Franz factually when he would explain, well... He supposed he'd have to let her know but his eyebrows furrowed in confusion when she spoke of enemies, or even revenge or bounty. Franz clearly looked at her in confusion because that was just news to him.
"Uh, I am sorry detective, but you have lost me after the mention of enemies." He told her sincerely still he did look confused, however he did just lift his hand to let her know that he would answer of course. "I have met Ayodele at TaSpa! she was my massage therapist, and when we were at the restaurant myself and a few friends of mine." Franz explained, he had probably said that in the report, though he couldn't quite remember if he had been asked those questions, or even answered those. "She was there at the bar, her break, and I figured I would thank her for how well she untied the knots on my back, although," Chuckling and exactly remembering that Toydorian who was from what look like it in cahoots with Lily, who that day seemed to be playing matchmaker. "I have to admit, I did find her attractive, and because I was dared by someone who often gets things done, well I figured I would just go up there, and introduce myself and ask Ayodele for coffee." What happened though then and there, maybe it was irrelevant, but he figured he would just say it. "She said that while she was on duty, she wasn't permitted to accept client's digit info but she mentioned that after work she often went to the Hallowed Grounds."
Rubbing his jaw and trying to recall as much, he did remember her touching his arm and her skin seemed cold. "Met up with her at the spot, after going shopping for some clothes, I remember rushing there, I was just so nervous seeing her again, but everything about her was just peace too, the way she'd express herself, and would just know or understand me. But I had asked here if she had been here originally because if I had known, I would have let myself be dragged at TaSpa! a long time ago, but nope, she told me that she had arrived from Polus five months prior. I figured she was from there, especially when I felt how cold her hand was, or even when her lips touched my cheek. But when she had asked me what I did here, I showed her, she seemed genuinely surprised when I telekinetically lifted the coffee from my cup. She was keenly and genuinely interested about what I did, and what the women I was with also did, I told her that actually she was invited to a pool party the next day. That I was inviting her so she could meet the women I was with..."
Franz knew that he was definitely going off in a tangent, and perhaps he truthfully did not know who Ayodele was, but what he did know was that she was kind, genuine and easy to talk to. "She was just so serene, and it was just so peaceful to talk with her, so I cannot even imagine her having any enemies at all, for she never mentioned anything to me. Then again she and I had that understanding that there was no pressure at all to answer each other's questions if we weren't comfortable with those. I always gave her the choice to answer mine, like she always gave me the choice to answer hers..." Leaning forward again with his arms on his legs, Franz looked at the detective, and finally asked her. "What aren't you telling me?"

Nazani frowns as Mace and Atlantis speculate that, if Ibori were killed by bounty hunters, the likelihood of them still being on Umgul is slim; the idea of having to look into extradition treaties Umgul might have with other worlds in case it comes to that is not exactly appealing, and Nazani knows there is also a possibility that whatever world the hypothetical bounty hunter or hunters are from or on now does not have any extradition treaty at all, meaning that there is a distinct possibility that Ibori's killer or killers might not face justice even if they are found.
Nodding when Mace reveals that she has the gift of psychometry, enabling her see memories or events connected to objects or beings - dead or alive - that she touches, Nazani tells her and Atlantis, "I appreciate the offer, but we have a few other leads to follow up on that might spare you from having to use your ability, which is a slight exaggeration since it is only a possibility that her partner's suggestion about digging through countless hours of cam footage will turn anything up resembling an actual suspect or lead, but given Mace's aversion to using her ability on corpses, Nazani is reluctant to ask that she does so before exhausting other possibilities. We'll reach out if we hit a snag, she adds since that too is a possibility, and then says, Assuming Master Franz requests that we, or you, resort to that measure of course."
Gardens
Just as he had waved her thanks aside, Cleite motions dismissively when Franz thanks her for doing her job. Gauging from the confusion Franz exhibits when asked about the possibility Ibori had any enemies or was being followed that the line of questioning is a dead end, Cleite listens as he goes on to describe how he met Ibori and was involved in a fledgling relationship with her that seems to have left an impression on him; not interrupting him even though what he shares does not seem likely to help in the investigation, though Cleite believes it may help Franz to speak about his memories of Ibori.
Having reinvented herself more than once, Cleite feels an odd sense of kinship with Ibori the more Franz describes her; it seems to Cleite that, no matter what she had done in her past, Ibori had become a peaceful, soothing presence for others - everyone from her employer and co-workers to neighbors and landlord describing Ibori in similar terms as Franz does - and though Cleite knows she is somewhat less objective than she should be, she finds herself more and more resolved to find Ibori's killer or killers to ensure they are brought to justice for ending the life of a being that had quite possibly overcome her nature.
Taking a hand from her pants pocket when Franz, not surprising her at all, guesses that she has been leading up to another revelation, Cleite brushes her chin length red hair back and, before answering his question, smiles sadly as she tells Franz, "Everyone we've spoken to about Miss Ibori describes her the same way you have, hoping that will enable him to keep his memories of Ibori intact despite what she tells him next when she says, The autopsy revealed that Miss Ibori was an Anzat, and was over 900 years old at the time of her death. After pausing to let that sink in, Cleite explains in a sympathetic tone that makes it clear she does not think Ibori deserved to die the way she did for something in her past when it seems clear that she had overcome her predatory instincts, We think it is possible that someone from her past, a family member or friend of a victim of Miss Ibori's seems most likely, may have killed or hired bounty hunters to kill Miss Ibori."

Out of respect for Franz, and generally altogether, out of respect for people that weren't here with belligerent motives, Mace did not let her innate power to just roam free, nor was she actually trying to sense his emotions and whatever what was going on in the gardens. Instead she was focused on the conversation that she was having the the Detective, and the Grandmaster, and that was all there was.
"Of course." Said Mace genuinely even with a faint smile before glancing at Atlantis and nodding, though she did remember that Atlantis wouldn't be here for a few days for his own personal reasons, which he had informed them previously. "Do reach out, yes, though you won't find the Grandmaster here for a bit, but I will be with Master Delgrave, and my cousin. We can assist you most certainly." Perhaps an assurance that wasn't necessary but again, if Nazani and her partner did come back here potentially looking for the Grandmaster of the MO originally, they would not be finding him here.
"Knowing him too, he'll probably want to get to the bottom of this, as I am very sure she meant a whole lot to him too." Despite that revelation that Ayodele was Anzat, Franz had never shown any prejudice overall, and just relied on facts, that was how she knew he was. And whatever he had come to find out, much like she and Atlantis probably did about what specie Ayodele was, Anzat or not, Ayodele's personality spoke for herself, and with Atlantis already vouching for her previously with the mention of the other women he was close with. That was enough for Mace to distance herself from what had occurred to her personally in the past.
"But I also trust that Franz will do what's right for him, and like I have said, I will do it, even if I despise doing so." Mace did care about Franz, and whatever her feelings were in using her psychometry on a dead body, in the end it was irrelevant for her, she knew she'd get over it, and Franz would have his answers, just like the detectives, and that was all that mattered.

It definitely had been a while since Ayodele had disappeared, and perhaps it was also around the same time frame that they had that situation with Lyov and Helaine, but it did not stop Franz from searching definitely. Now the search was over, Atlantis was wondering what his cousin would do, but like Mace had said previously, he did have that option to finding out.
Again like Mace said he wouldn't be here for a few days, not that it would be impeding the investigation at all since the set of powers that was probably needed, Mace had it, and it had been too long for him to actually go up and check the scene on where the body was discovered. The mists would not show him anything at all.
"That's right, you'll be in perfect hands with her." He told Nazani, since indeed he would be gone for a few days, or however long. But either way, even if Mace did despise using her ability on a corpse, and he understood the reasoning behind it all, the images, the emotions of someone's death was often tough to stomach it for anyone, although he never saw Mace shying away from those type of situations in any case.
Atlantis looked at Nazani with a knowing expression and just inclined his head. The rest was now all up to Franz indeed.

That revelation that Ayodele was an Anzat, it all made sense to him, how her body temperature had been cold from the few times he had touched her, and how often times she seemed to always be wrapping her hands into her coffee cup to warm her up. While the fact that she was an Anzat actually didn't leave him a bad taste in the mouth, plus he had no right to feel that way, especially when they were just starting to get to know one another, he understood that probably back then she was not the woman she had come to be the moment she moved to Umgul...
A reason why he did look at Cleite with sadness mostly and not even with anger at all when she revealed that fact about Ayodele. Sighing softly, who better than him would understand that people had skeletons in their closets, and she probably had 850+ years or so of those. "Perhaps indeed someone from her past... Revenge can be a deadly factor for a lot, or they might even call that justice..." Sighing softly and standing up finally, Franz looked at Cleite. "I'd like to help if you'll have me, of course, I can understand why perhaps those hunters did what they did, but what I cannot understand..."
Actually preferring to not carry on, as in the end, a lot could be ruled by their passion or even thirst to do what was right, all in the name of justice, perhaps, but fact was, Ayodel was here, she was peaceful and not once he felt her succumbing into her nature, at least not with him, and he probably was the potential closest source for being fed upon. Still, he never felt her manipulating him or anything. "Unfortunately detective, because my relationship with her was at an early stage, there is nothing more I can tell you about her. But I will want to help of course, she deserves it, at least for her time spent on Umgul here." Sighing softly and looking at Cleite with a grateful smile also for how she handled this situation and how she approached it, he was thankful. "Would it be okay if I do come to the Precinct at a later time, or anything? It's just..." He pointed around the Academy, and surely she had definitely seem some of the damages some in part of him plus with all the vines and trees in the hallway and stairwell.

Cleite nods when Franz says that he even though he understands how revenge may have been a factor in Ibori's death he is still willing to help in the search for her killer or killers, telling him, "Absolutely, I understand you have things here to deal with, handing him one of her cards as she says, When you are available, just comm me to let me know when you want to come into the precinct, adding, We have a few things we plan on looking into that might give us some leads in the meantime, and will hopefully have made some progress by the time you are available."
Hesitating briefly as she is not certain her sympathy will be of any comfort to the Jedi, Cleite rests a hand on his forearm consolingly as she decides to offer it anyway, telling Franz, "I am very sorry for your loss," before she says good-bye and then makes her way back to where her partner and the other Jedi were speaking when she and Franz had gone to the gardens.
Front Entrance Hall
Nodding when Vos says that Delgrave will almost certainly want to see the investigation through to the end and that she will be available if there is a need for her unique ability, Nazani says, "I appreciate that, and then nods with a smile when Atlantis reassures her that she and her partner would be in good hands with Vos since the Grandmaster is apparently not going to be available for a while, telling him, I have no doubt about that, Grandmaster."
After Cleite rejoins them and they thank the Jedi for their time and reassure them that they will be in touch if they make any progress or need to take Vos up on her offer, the detectives take their leave, filling one another in on what they had learned or discussed with the Jedi they had spoken with individually as they make their way to their airspeeder and then return to the precinct to update Commissioner Niyol on their progress and request the time and manpower to review the security camera footage they want to review from Ibori's workplace and apartment complex if it is available from the time of Ibori's disappearance.

When Franz and Cleite joined them again after their talk, Atlantis inclined his head to both of the detectives as a thanks for coming over. Placing his hand on his cousin's shoulder, Atlantis looked at Franz knowingly that said he was aware. "I'll let you two talk." Atlantis told both Mace and Franz since when it came to potentially doing anything or finding the killers, Mace had the best ability out of them all.
"I'll go check up on Saoirse first then I'll be sending the report to the Commissioner about what happened here and those three darksiders..." Walking over towards the student quarters, Atlantis took a deep breath and knew that potentially him leaving in the following days for Hapes was not ideal, but maybe...

Shaking her head slightly with a faint smile, Nazani didn't need to thank her at all. They had offered their assistance, and that was all there was. Seeing that Franz and Detective Kallas emerging from the gardens, Mace inclined her head to both of the Detectives before looking at Franz after the Grandmaster had taken his leave.
"I assume that you want to find out what happened?" Asked Mace dubiously as they began to walk, and perhaps Franz did not want to talk about it right now, or just wanted to think about it further, or even come to terms further, which was why Mace just stayed her tongue and checked up on some of the students they crossed their paths with at the DUM droids kept fixing the damages.
I already told this to the detective, Atlantis and I were talking to, if you truly want to know I will be glad to assist in finding out what happened
Mace then left it at that, figuring he just wanted to think about what had been revealed to him, but of course with what recently had just happened here, she was more than certain that Franz would prioritize this, and focus on the students also just to make sure that they were going to be alright, particularly Nadira and Gida, the both they did check up on also since Atlantis was checking up on Saoirse, she figured they would make sure that the Twi'lek and the Dazouri were alright since they had been controlled by a Dark Sider . . .

Franz was grateful for Cleite's gentleness and consideration on how she revealed to him of what Ayodele's faith had been, and also showing kindness for his feelings, he smiled and inclined his head as a thanks.
Following her out of the gardens and letting the mists run its course again in the garden, Franz rejoined Mace after his cousin told him that he was going to check up on Saoirse...
"I do, yes, but..." Knowing that it wouldn't change what had happened, he figured that they could just handle the aftermath here, while Atlantis was gone, and perhaps he would take up Mace's offer.
Looking at her and smiling slightly, he was grateful for her offer, even though he knew that she despised using her ability on a corpse, but he understood all the same. "I'll just see what comes up further on their side, then I can decide there..."
Doing the rounds with Mace in the Academy and checking on the students, even if that news fell on his lap at a bad time, which still bummed him honestly, but he had enough distance so to speak, that it wasn't despairing for him. However he figured that there was nothing more left to say, or nothing left to do right now, but just carry on with life, and just be focused on the students well being here altogether...
"I'll see you later, I need to change, I got drenched on." Thankfully everything here had concluded in the best way possible, and for that at least that was a win globally...
