Vesemir silently prayed that Via was right. The upheaval paused as they walked through that dimly lit corridor, but the ominous feeling in the air persisted, like a chill in the calm before the storm. 

They finally arrived when Arcan was almost finished. The Ancient Djinn towered before Miwa like a teacher having a fiery debate with a student, but it was actually Jazdia who seemed to be getting the punishment.

Words spoken, vibrating with unmistakable authority. Vesemir was momentarily daunted by it, yet mightily intrigued by its arcanness. He stood there, watching what seemed to be a harsh lecturing reaching its conclusion. Or maybe not, considering Jazdia and Miwa were facing him directly. The ranger held her blade, something that, in Mr. Elc's words, was a rare thing. Verdant and Rezello were also assuming a combat pose, making the situation even more tense.  

What pushed this usually feisty and childish youkai to the brink of ferality? What does Arcan mean by that? Too much to process, yet silence was too overwhelming. What was actually going on? He intended to ask, but the sheer intimidation everyone radiated was immense. It was gradually defusing, but still rendered him speechless.
