(Abyss picks Emerald up and makes her comfortable in her bed, then walks downstairs to wait for the Pyres to return, then he hears a couple knocks at the door)

Abyss: (thinks) C'mon! It's like...um....9 at night..? 9:30? I dunno, but it's late, who could that be? Maybe the Pyres came back? Lemme see.

(He opened the door to see Tala, Storm, and Strike standing at the door, Tala playing with snow in her hands, Storm looking at the sky, and Strike adjusting his collar)
