"Hadrian and Mevia were indeed heading to this world to attack me, however they never mentioned hurting anyone else. Hadrian stated that he didn't want to commit to it, though this could be because I was there as he spoke" Radar looked up at me, waiting for more info. I sighed. "That's all he told me..." I finished up. Radar flicked through his notes and started to scribble in his notepad once more. He constantly, flicked between a few certain pages and either crossing out info or re-writing it once more. Finally, he stopped and looked up at me

"So..." He started. "Hadrian and Mevia came to this world looking to attack you, most likely for you taking their reign at the games, however Hadrian claims to have not wanted to do this to you, though it's unknown if he's lying at this point in time. Hadrian also mentioned him and Mevia getting along for one night then immediately the next night both are distraught after an argument, meaning they were in this world for two days at minimum before they were caught in the fire. We can also assume this argument took place during the day. Then once the fire hit, the two followed the passive mobs to the riverbank and dove in one after another to escape the fire. Unfortunately, a burning tree fell on the two. Hadrian shielded Mevia from the attack and received the large gash on his back, along with significantly more injuries than Mevia, however Mevia is thought to have been struck by a branch on her head indicated by the splinters the doctors found in her wound, causing her to blackout and fall unconscious for a longer amount of time than Hadrian. How the two did not drown is unknown, though it's plausible the current pushed them to the shore, saving their lives. Then the next day, around early afternoon, you and madam Petra returned with them in the state you found them, before giving them proper treatment. As of their last check-up, Mevia is healing well though has not come to consciousness, Hadrian however is healing at a much slower rate than Mevia is, though as of today he is at full consciousness"

"That's all the information we have as of now?" I asked him once he finished up. Radar nodded.

"I've been taking note of everything since you and Madam Petra brought them in" He stated. "I thought it would be good to keep track of their history before the event occurred and their condition as of now. I thought it would help to know all this so the doctors can treat their wounds knowing the timeline of events and how they were caused, and for us to help them by being aware of any hurtful events they went through before the fire, like the argument. When we're aware of these factors, we can help them more efficiently" I smiled at Radar as I nodded my head in understanding

"It's great you've been keeping track of all this Radar" I said. "This is very helpful information" Radar smiled nervously

"Just trying to do my job Jesse" he replied. "I'll admit, I was already nervous when you hired me to become your intern, but this event has really scared me..." I gave Radar a concerned look. I hadn't thought much on how he was feeling throughout this event, but this would be scary to a new recruit like Radar. I placed my hand on his shoulder, making him look me in the eyes. I smiled sadly

"I'm scared to Radar" I admitted. "Hadrian and Mevia hurt me in the past, and I'm afraid they might still want to do that, but not just to me, but to my friends as well, including you..." Radar looked at me, surprised I had called him a friend. I smiled sadly as I continued "But even with this fear of mine, I still want to help them recover. As for you Radar, you have handled this situation extremely well, much better than I would've done if I was in your position. You've not only kept your cool in most of these situations, but you've been noting down every important detail and have been a large help in Hadrian and Mevia's recovery. I'm glad I hired you" I tussled Radar's hair lightly as I said that, making him blush lightly

"Th-Thank you Jesse" He stuttered. "I-I'm glad to be w-working with you a-and the rest of the Order" I smiled

"And we're glad you're working with us to" I said. Radar smiled shyly as he pulled out his notepad again, though before we could continue our discussion, the doctors all came out and greeted us, however the grim looks on their faces worried me...
