However he did listen and look on all the solars with calm if bit restrained awed expression. Once Umari arrived he moved to stand and gave him deep bow and moved stand besides him. Once Umari showed his own status as a solar, it should clarify to Ramalan that it was not just him refusing the offer to join him, but rather he has already struck deep loyalties to another solar and he will not betray them, even if for another solar. None the less the matter and details of the manse, it's unique nature and their society asks lots explaining and words to do, so even if Ramalan would understand local military hand signs, Yolhu will not start explaining or talking. Just stand, listen and observe. As he can see other soldiers and fellow dragon-blood soldier Ashen Hero was on guard, so he likewise took similar stance as even if solars are revered in the manse, it does not mean they cannot turn into enemies. As much records of first era survived to tell solars had fought each other for power somepoint so it's not impossible. However Yolhu was hopeful this encounter opens a new era, a interesting new chapter, for the War Manse 13 as this is first contact with solars outside their own manse.<br/><br/><em>"Thank god this was found out before we proceed to second phase of the integration what we usually do to shipwrecked strangers."</em>
