The environment in the Chamber of Zikar was very tense and heated. After the trio of Aedric, Duran, and Zikar, the duo of Arin and Ragna were the only team who had spent a night in that village and returned safely.
They were also the only group who not only returned by themselves but also came back with a lot of hostages. It was a great feat in itself.
However, congratulating or celebrating them was not the main purpose of the closed-door meeting. The main purpose was to determine what was happening, how the duo dealt with it, and what they had discovered.
