Tarrant catches Damien before he faints, yee! Gawd, I'm so pathetic, but...I never stop loving that bit. And then he wanders around holding him up, and does the telepathy thing, and I wonder, "Friedman, if this isn't some kind of slashy UST thing, then what else could you possibly be trying to achieve?" XD
When I manage to tear my attention away from that, I love this entire sequence, from last chapter through the next couple, for Ciani kicking butt. It's her enterprise that gets them through this; she may not have her speshul powarz or all her loremastery information, but we get to see the kind of person she is underneath that.
Gotta say I'm confused about the khrast, though. Hesseth says they hold no special rank or sway aside from being interpreters, and yet they all seem to step lively when she tells them what to do, don't they? Is that just because Hesseth's a lady you don't want to cross?
