Kenji slowly rose late from his bed, having taken advantage of a day off, and climbed down to note the late morning light for the time. Thankful that Haruki, one of his elder sisters, had not beat him awake, he turned to the lower bunks of his brothers. Daitaro's was predictably empty; but Saburo's was surprisingly occupied.
Having not seen his little brother in weeks, the adept crept closer to check on the younger Saar. Kenji then sighed at the various nicks and cuts before gathering some mana to heal Saburo's wounds. "You always come home in this condition, silly little brother," he admonished quietly. The older Saar then got dressed and left the room to see if anyone else was around.
Knocking on the door to the room his older sisters shared, he noted a complete lack of reply. This giving him some courage, he took a deep breath and peeked in, relaxing when it looked like neither of the twins were there. Of course, Haruki's bunk was a complete mess while Haruko's was perfectly made (or at least as good as what can be done with straw, canvas, and old furs) - the latter must have left first.
With that, the young Saar closed the door and made his way down into the main room. Here, there was a cooking area with potion making equipment mixed in, a fireplace, and an eating area that doubled as the family patriarch's sleeping place. Noting that even downstairs no one else was around, Kenji located a little cheese and bread before heading out into the world.

After some time walking, Kenji made his way to the Earth Weaver guild-house in Calanhelm. As he got up to the door the food he had recently eaten felt as if they had hardened and weighed heavy in his stomach - the fact that he had taken so long to do this ate at him. As the Saar's paw came up to knock, the feeling grew heavier cuasing a sense of nausea came over him; but he pushed through it and tapped twice before entering.
"Hello?" he called into the hall.
