The usually elegant ghost was drifting back and forth along a side of the Hall, her hands wringing themselves instead of sitting on her lap. She couldn't have been the only one to notice these... changes. Someone else had to have picked up on this and knew what it meant. She was looking for answers and she was going to get them from the first ghostly, or otherwise, companion to float through any of the doors or staircases. It was decided.

The sight of the Lady ghost had this gloomy ghost drifting over toward her. Clearly something was troubling her. A sight he could never bare to endure."Lady Helena.." Perhaps she sensed something else too? "Are you sensing certain things as well?"
The final stretch of the term was the most taxing to most students, especially to one Jacen Reed. The looming exams, practicals, and everything in between had been crunched into a short period of time and Jace had to keep his head above water to prevent himself from a breakdown. And what was the best thing to do to prevent a meltdown? A nap; a nice, quiet nap beside the landing of the entrance hall.
Jace was sat on the floor, his eyes closed shut as he subconsciously drifted into sleep, with his Divination book wide open on his lap. He’d been up all night cramming certain information that he’d put at the back of his head. He’d been distracted with Kendo training, and procrastination got the best of him.
The shallow slumber was disturbed when he heard excessive rattling of chains. Jace jolted back to reality, looked around, and heard the Baron’s voice travel across the hall. Jace took a peek and saw that Lady Helena was there as well. The Ravenclaw decided not to interrupt and just went on to force himself study Divination. It was kind of hard to concentrate however, given that the Baron’s tone was laced with worry.
They are sensing…exactly
what?
