You've been in the coven for about a week now, you've been given smaller tasks like finding runaways and killing the occasional monster.
The coven work is pretty tame at the moment, you haven't failed a mission yet, which is good. But you're getting a slight bit bored.
Of course you prefer this over life threatening missions but the activities you're given feel like doing homework for the illusions class at hexide. It's super easy and rarely anything new is brought up.
At least with illusions you could get creative with your homework, here you're trapped in a bubble.

You lay back on your bed, back on your pillows, ankles crossed, with your hands behind your head staring at the ceiling.
You haven't been given a task today, nor has anyone told you to do anything at all really.
Let's see.. what can I do here that won't get me in trouble..
You already took a shower, you went through those pictures twice, you wrote/drew [your choice :D] your hand dry, you've done a tad bit of training, you even made an illusion of your favorite show episode. (Memorized by heart from watching it over and over again)
You audibly sigh wondering what you could do now.

You think for while
..
I guess you could go outside? Given the fact no one has called you to bury today you most likely aren't needed, why not bask in the sun for a while?

You get off your bed and walk over to your window. You open it gently, the cool windy breeze gusts over you, it's quite nice out today. You look down from your second story window to the yard below. There's a few scouts wandering around, some even talking to one another.

Well, if they can go outside why can't you?

You go open your wardrobe and take out your cloak, clipping it on. You then take your mask from off your small table and put it on, putting your hood up with it.

You open your door and look left and right at the hallway. There's one or two scouts walking around.
You walk out your room and close you door, locking it with the small skeleton key.

After a bit of wandering through the halls you're now outside. You take a deep breath through your nose, inhaling the crisp air.

You try to stay around the castle, but find yourself going out into town, seeing people messing around having fun, kids going out with their parents. You miss your parents..

"You, scout!"

Damn can a guy just walk around for once in his life?
You turn around to see the golden guard stepping towards you, arms crossed.

"Yes sir?"

"Are you permitted to be over here?"

Shit.
Well, do you tell the truth and face potential punishment or do you lie and have him leave you alone? Still, then you could still be proven wrong..

"I-i am sir by um- I was given a task."

Well, turns out your a terrible liar.

"Really? By who then?"

Uuuuuuh-

"Uhm- Everwolf?"

Wait, can Everwolf even talk?

"Nice try, but you're terrible at lying. Why are you really here?"

Well, here goes the truth, and your first strike to a potential kick-out.
You sigh

"I was not needed for any other task at the castle. I had simply wished to walk around and got carried away. I deeply, deeply apologize sir."

You keep eye contact with the boy. Mask contact? Sight contact? Who knows maybe he's looking to the side, I mean you can't see behind his mask so who knows- ok you should shut up now.
