As I am hugging my brother, I hear my stomach grubble. We stare at each other before bursting out in laughter. He gives me a duffle bag, tells me to meet him outside my door in 20 mn.
I reach for clean clothes in the bag by taking stuff out including Xaden's flight jacket. Instinctly, I sniff the jacket. It still feels like him. Eventually, everything comes flooding back, I shove the jacket back in the duffle bag, get my clothes and look for a bathroom. 

It's the first time I actually look at the room. The walls are made of stone. The front door is on the left side at the end of the wall. Far from the bed. The sheets are white but the foundation of the bed is black. On my right is a balcony as long as the wall. The clear curtains are pulled whilest the thick curtains are attached on each side on the windows. There are night stands with a lamp on each side on the bed and a lounge chair is pushed close to the bed. Must have been for Brennan. 

On the opposite of the bed, there is a sliding door leading into a walk in closet

On the opposite of the bed, there is a sliding door leading into a walk in closet. I enter. What a surprise. There is marbre stand in the middle with all 3 sides of the walk in closet mostly full. Not with clothes though. Yes, there are clothes on my right side: a shelf for shirt, pants, boots, watches and a hanger for a few jackets. But that's it. Instead there is a column from top to bottom:
- letters
- books from children to leadership
- maps, charts, treaties
- Riders Quadrant equipment including bags, boots, jacket
- And finally what takes 1/3 of the entire closet: weapons from daggers to swords in all shapes and sizes.

Who that this room belong to? Whoever it belongs to is a lonely person to have their own room used to fill weapons and maps and stuff. That person only lives for the rebellion. 

Finally, I find the bathroom in the right corridor when you exit the walk in closet
