There wasn’t any draft that surrounded the four of them.
It was only the slight movement of bodies that covered the sound of silence, as nobody moved to open their mouths for a long while. The area had always been empty and yet, at this very moment, the surrounding area seemed to not only be void of life but is also looking to take as well. The regularly cut grass, presenting lovely shades of green, all levelled in neat rows next to each other; all except the ones crushed beneath the feet of the four present in the area, silent and still. Light ceased to hit the ground as the sun was encased in an array of clouds, scampering to darken the sky.
Kakusabi held a neutral expression at Thomas’s reply and looked towards Caster, although she could not track the time she had spent with him, she knew that he was ultimately displeased by the Magus’s response. She, however, mulled over the other Magus’s reason for his research. For the betterment of humanity. Although, she did not know anything about Thomas and only just recently knew his name; she would admit that he held a noble goal.
Laudability, however, is not a form of defense.
Slowly, she shifted her hand close enough to Caster’s cloak that she barely grazed it.
"Alright... It is a shame, though."
