[it's mid-afternoon, almost evening, when Akira seeks out Magnus, finding him hanging out by the bonfire. thank goodness he didn't have to look all over camp for him]
I'm. . . not sure. The star tattoo thing was pretty much a bust. Almost everybody could account for their items.
When it comes down to it, the only reason we thought Escha was innocent was because we couldn't figure out a reason she'd do it. So there's that. But I still can't think of one.

[his brow furrows, and when he speaks his voice is purposefully even]
Who did Lili say she stayed with again. . .? Ookurikara, and someone else?
