One week is a long time and yet so fast for people that really needed the time.
The team worked hard that week. Julius made sure he read out the names of those that disappeared in the cursed land for them, and there were lots of them.
It created a weird atmosphere throughout that week.
On one hand, they trusted that Severin wouldn't just lead them to their deaths and that he must have something planned. On the other hand, they couldn't deny that the situation surrounding the cursed land was truly mysterious and terrifying.
Because none of the people that went missing there were ever found.
Still, it didn't take from their training, as they even seemed to train harder throughout that week. But it wasn't only training that they did; they also prepared in another way.
Severin wrote down the list of things they were going to need, and Ethan provided the money until the House would be capable of paying him back.
