"Demoko, I'm going to have you disappear a bit to make sure no one finds you. Is that okay?"
Demoko nods.
"Because that totally doesn't sound like a serial killer!" Josh mockingly chuckles.
Warwick looks confused for a second before becoming annoyed, "Shut up! Return!"
Warwick washes off his shoulder, as Demoko disappears, and gets a new shirt on.
"Wait! Summon Demoko!"
Demoko shows back up as Warwick quickly says, "Grab my sickle and knife real quick!"
Demoko takes a moment to find them, and Warwick commands "Return!" the very moment after he picks them up.
Warwick puts his laptop in his bag as they both grab their stuff and run off to class.
They get into class a few minutes early, while the professor from their first class is writing logical fallacies on the board.
"You look better. How is the new game?" The professor asks.
"It's not as easy as I thought it'd be. But I was able to rest and feel a bit better," Warwick explains, as Josh avoids eye contact from the back of the class.
"I'll assume your uniform is still 'resting'."
"I tried playing outside for a bit, and it got torn. Do you know anything about playwriting?"
"Yes actually, I teach a theater history class on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I can talk more about it after class."
"Maybe Monday, I have plans after class," Warwick states as the bell rings.
"Welcome class, I hope everyone presenting today are ready!" The professor announces as the projector screen lowers.
Warwick pulls out his notes and peer critique cards, and gives takes notes as the professor refreshes the class on logical fallacies before presentations continue.
After class, Warwick and Josh head back to the dorm.
On the way back, Warwick pulls up the Mabinogi website to check on the progress of the maintenance.

"NO!" Warwick yells as he runs as fast as he can to his dorm.
Once inside, he slams the door shut and in a flash is where he was when Macha showed up.
"Calm down, whatever they did, freaking out isn't going to help," Warwick states to himself, as he takes a few deep breaths.
Calmer, he speedwalks to the inn, as it's getting dark.
As Warwick gets close, Nora approaches him before he can get a word in.
"You look like you could use a rest. We have rooms for 120 gold a night!" Nora happily greets him, as all hope drains from his face.
"Please tell me you're joking!" Warwick responds, looking like he's about to break down.
"I am so sorry! I can see if my uncle will knock down the price! Everything will be okay!" Nora frantically tries to assure him, not sure why he's so upset.
"You really d-don't remember?" Warwick asks, growing in mortification.
"Did you already pay? I am usually better with faces, though it has been a busy day. Please forgive me," Nora apologizes, as tears start to fall from Warwick's face.
"I am really sorry! If you relax for a moment, we can figure out what is going on together," Nora continues to reassure, not sure what to do or what she did to upset him this much.
Unable to get any words out, Warwick just starts nodding.
"Let me go talk to my uncle. I will see what we can do," Nora states, running inside.
Warwick starts humming the song Nora sang, as Nora stops in her place.
"How do you know that song?" Nora asks, turning back to face Warwick.
Warwick gulps before speaking, "You sang it in the graveyard the second to last time I saw you. We had a talk about how I was surprised the spiders didn't come close. I remember when you taught me how to Rest, it feels so natural now."
Nora covers her mouth in shock, "I never finished that song. I do not remember any of that. I never even sung that song!"
"Someone messed with your memory; someone far more powerful and more mysterious than even the gods. I don't think your memories can be restored. But I hope you'll believe me, and we can get to know each other once again," Warwick states, holding out his hand, and holding back his tears.
She nods before gathering herself, "It is getting late, you might want to get a room if you plan to."
Warwick returns the nod before following her in.
Warwick gulps upon seeing Piaras behind the desk.
