"'Tis why you're hiding, then." Makes sense, if he expended whatever energy he had, that he wouldn't want to encounter anyone on the train who might take advantage of that state.

The Scions were gone and I--" The longer he talks, the more animated he gets, until he cuts himself off, rubbing his face with one hand.
"Something is wrong and there was naught I could do."
