Simon did not know this, but the Pallbearers and several other members of the clan who knew that he was tortured by Pellin were actually surprised that he still had his sanity.
To them, Simon was a fifteen year old kid who was tortured by a sick and mental demon.
What he went through was something that would break and had broken the minds of most men and warriors, and as a young boy, they believed Simon's mind should have been broken.
Especially, after the soul-eating centipede was placed inside his ear.
Every pain he went received was a pain that would traumatize even the best of some warriors, but after he was released and brought to the Hall of the Pallbearers, he acted like he was okay.
He did not tremble in fear or pain. He did not beg for anybody to kill him. He did not rage or shed a single tear.
To them, it was like Simon had not just gone through an experience that would scar and traumatize even some elite warriors of the demon realm.
