Yassin wanted to go back and get to his father, but they held him back, telling him it was over, that the war had been decided, and that in the best-case scenario, Gaia would be imprisoned, not killed. Leonis sat down, his head bowed in sorrow and grief, while Sairi looked at Keno with resentment.
"I knew you were hiding something!" he snapped. "Why didn't you tell us all this before we went to war with Gaia?"
Keno adjusted his glasses and put a hand on his head in despair. "There was no time to talk about these things," he said. "Gaia attacked us as soon as I learned the truth, and I knew he would try to eliminate us because we were a thorn in his side on his path to liberating the Lunix. Of course, I'm going to defend the humans, and I won't let him wipe us out, even if it means falling under the control of the Zurix."
