Wangji shook his head gravely.

"I arrived alone."

Sizhui couldn't know what that meant, of course. He didn't know who Lan Zhan had actually found. Couldn't know that being torn from that moment of discovery had carved another hole in his heart.

He took the chocolate delicately, raising his sleeve to block his mouth as he attempted a small taste.

"If we are here, we will stay alert for others." He glanced back at the crowd among them. "Jeopardy." Said with the tone that the name inspired. He had come here because - well. Because he went where the chaos was. And this had seemed a good route. But on arriving here, he found the name meant little, and the wind was dry. He fell silent for a long moment.

"We will search." There were many places in this world, after all, that harboured those like them. People stolen from other worlds. They would search them all until they found the others. Or until they knew they were alone.
