Paige was fully alert once the sounds of marching became apparent. She had to think fast as soldiers were approaching. The librarian was well aware that they could be recognized from the events in Santaruz. Yet, they weren't followed here (at least, Paige and Eli weren't).

"Good day, sirs," Paige said with a bright smile. "So many soldiers in the streets today. Is this another parade?"
