Ayen's expression grew intense as time passed, so the tension could already be felt. Khal and Devion did not try to talk with him either, letting him be lost in his thoughts.
They could distract him, but it was better for Ayen to calm down instead. That was indeed the best, as Ayen's emotions calmed down somewhat; the rage and darkness within him retreated.
However, when the city was already in their sight, Ayen's emotions surged again. He clasped his hand, composing himself. There were already sorts of scenarios in his head, which he suppressed, but some still managed to mess with his mind.
Ayen paused and looked at the two who were sitting at his sides. Liz stopped moving at their behest.
