The next morning, Jevan activated the display in the center of their dining table while Ardyn made tea and Cylaen helped prepare breakfast. The girls were exhausted from the traumatic events of the previous day, so they let them sleep in, figuring it was probably for the best that they didn’t watch the interrogation.

When the camera feed began broadcasting, Jevan recognized the section of the Rahn’naa that had holding cells. It was now part of a complex of buildings that were used to train and manage the security techs, and detain anyone caught doing something they shouldn’t. That section was small as there was hardly any use for them, but today all the cells within view of the camera were filled.

In the center of the room was a table, with Tomas sat on one side, while Aerys was pacing the room and talking to the four security techs that stood guard. Within the visible holding cells, some contained the soldiers that had tried to attack them on the Wah’kah’ria. Inside another was Aron, sitting on the ground and holding his head. Jevan also recognized a couple of men he knew from Ahren in the next cell.
