The training centre seemed eerily quiet in comparison to a few weeks ago, when the full group had been in attendance. Today, only the Lightwoods, the Steele brothers and Juliet had shown up, the few of them determined to upkeep their studies despite how fractured their team had become as of late. Others drifted in and out, but varied in consistency depending on their mood or conflicting schedules. Juliet didn't grant herself that freedom. She'd already lost them all once, and she refused to bow down and allow it to happen a second time. These meetings gave her focus, a structure to abide by. Vampire or not, this was her purpose; Alec easily dismissing her banishment and allowing her to practice alongside them had proven so. She had to work harder now, that was all. With Jace and Alec dismissing themselves to privately strengthen their parabatai methods, it left Juliet in the room with Isabelle, Elijah and Benjamin. There was a thick, lingering tension surrounding them, but with their conjoined professionalism and Isabelle's charming one liners, they were able to dismiss it. Duty came first, after all. "We should work on paired defence strategies today. I'll play Strigoi. Izzy, you could —" Juliet cut herself off from discussing tactics when she heard footsteps approach their door, accompanied by a scent she didn't recognise. A deep inhalation proved what she'd already began to fear. "Dhampir."

After a long and strenuous journey to Alexandria, Eggsy was eager to resume a normal schedule, and rekindle some old relationships. Lissa and Mikhail were en route to Adrian's, and Ciri was settled safely in with Harley and Mia, so Eggsy had decided to seek out the training centre. If the rumours were to be believed, and there were guardians residing in town, they were almost guaranteed to be there.
