Worlds Apart

As you make your way to the Great Hall, you're hyper-aware of the Guardian following only a few steps behind you. You can feel his warm breath on the back of your neck and it makes you tense up. Yet again, you wonder what's wrong with you. This is no different to how the other Guardians act with the others.

At least you've been hiding your gradually growing feelings of discontent from the authorities, but how long will it be before you can't hide any longer?

When you come to the Great Hall, you pause, a sudden feeling of dread growing in the pit of your stomach. A meeting in the Great Hall is never a good thing and you're suddenly not sure you really want to go, even though all of the others are going into the room - lines of identical faces and bodies, all dressed in exactly the same way.

You turn round slowly, jumping a little when you see the Guardian standing directly behind you. You take a step back, then glance at the Great Hall again, suddenly reluctant to just follow the crowd.
