When the party leaves the Stilshrine, Ajora pauses to thank his escort once more, then to give each a teleport stone so that they may use the Gate Crystal if they so choose. He himself wishes to speak quietly with the other Kiltias standing watch at the doorway.

Privately, he's still mildly disappointed none of the escort proved acceptable to the Scion within, but ultimately that is of small matter. In good time, he will find them all and lead each vessel to their match. Or perhaps the Scions will seek out their own vessels without his interference. They are stirring for rebellion, and patience is no longer a virtue in their estimation.

He has a vague feeling he is being watched, though for what purpose or by whom, he cannot say. The priest does look about, trying to place the source of such sensation. Alas, nothing... yet.
