The council has always been secretive, and their agendas often lead to decisions that impact. everyone in the community. Did they pressure him into something, or is there a new threat on the horizon that he's struggling to handle on his own?

Determined to find sanswers, I head downstairs to the dining hall, hoping to catch a glimpse of Soren at breakfast. The room is bustling with the usual morning chatter, but his familiar presence is nowhere to be found. I approach Maribel, who is busy setting the table. When I ask about Soren, she looks concerned.

I make my way through the corridors, scanning for any sign of Soren. As I approach the entrance, I spot Gregor, one of the guards, standing at his post.
"Good morning, Gregor," I greet him with a hopeful smile.
"Have you seen Soren?" Gregor nods, adjusting his stance. "He left early this morning with Damian. They seemed to be in a hurry, but he didn't mention where they were headed." "Did he say when he'd be back?" I ask, trying to mask my concern.

I I'm standing beside Damian, my frustration simmering just beneath the surface. The council's summons felt urgent as Maverick called us to the beaches by the docks, and now can't shake the feeling that something is very wrong. It took us three hours in the car before we arrived here. Pulling up in the parking lot the entire street is lined with onlookers. Police are everywhere trying to get rid of people when I realize it's not just supernatural officials but human officials.
"What the heck is going on?" Damian murmurs as we climb out of the car. The two of us approach the beach, where officials are gathered near the water's edge. The salty air fills my lungs, but it does nothing to quell the unease creeping into my chest when I see the huge shipping container that has washed onto the beach.
"There's been a shipping container that washed ashore," the member explains, his face pale. "We need you to take a look." I look at Damian confused, wondering why we would be called to check out a container.
"Washed up last night?" Damian asks, trying to gauge what is going on.
"Yeah. A storm hit last night, and this washed up. Shumans broke into it," Maverick tells me, coming over to us.
