Though animosity towards their captors was to be expected, the explosive violent reaction from one of the Suthay-raht's came as a shock. Gallus, who was closest to the prisoner, was first to act. He rushed up to Jo'rashaad shouting and desperately tried to grab at his arm before he could land another blow. "Wait, stop! Stop!"

Fendros and Janius had sprung up from their seats as well to restrain Jo'rashaad. With their combined effort, they would be able to contain him, but Gallus knew that he wouldn't stop until either the prisoner was dead or he could talk some sense into him. "He's a lead! We need him alive to talk!" Gallus grit his teeth as he finally got enough leverage to overpower the man, "For the sake of your clan, put the damn wood down! Now!"

Despite what Gallus claimed, there was no knowing if the first swing was enough to kill the prisoner outright. He couldn't check in all the commotion.
