Kevin was seated in the window seat of his room, gaze on the ground below although he was actually seeing none of it. His mind was replaying the events of the past few days and one hand rose to touch the bandages over his eye before he let it drop back to his side.  This place had to be some kind of twisted delusion of the Will. It was the only explanation, but that didn't really mesh with the story the two who'd found him had told him about this place.

He'd heard of the four houses before but why would one people involved with them be in a place like this unless they'd done something to draw the ire of the Will.  He'd even caught sight of the two boys he'd seen in the room where the Will had taken his eye wandering around and that more than anything else confirmed his suspicions.
