Jekin spent much of those three days meditating and training, even when not so required to or asked by his comrades.  Though he would certainly join them when contacted, he made few attempts to initiate such.  He could not get away from hearing the news, of course, when he went to get his robes, tunic, and trousers cleaned and mended a day or two after the excitement.  He came to peace, at least temporarily, with the idea of his near death and letting the terrorists escape, through both silent contemplation and running himself ragged through whatever drills he could conduct in his chambers.<br/><br/>When Merryn 'called', he donned his full robes and made his way over.  The few day's rest had given him time to find his serenity, and he showed the ease he had not quite had for the last few days now.
