Jezin met Thomas smirk with a cold glare, but said nothing. A fine situation they had landed themselves in, he thought. He wondered if Thomas' offer to get them a ship home was legitimate. He found himself doubting it, but if the man were telling the truth, then they'd have caught a break, for once. Then again, he'd have to make it out of his interrogation alive, and that in itself didn't seem terribly likely. He followed without speaking, his armor clinking as he walked along back towards the palace. He looked to Jorun and Alia. Jorun seemed to have a grim face, but Alia seemed on the verge of fuming. She had always been that way, at least as long as he could remember. She was extremely headstrong, but the bodyguard was glad she was holding her tongue, at least for the moment. He watched Thomas' back. 'Just what are you planning?' he thought.
