Mhina, the person who betrayed Zane and got him thrown in Teledo Prison, is the last person Zane wanted to know that he got out, but in the end it went shockingly well. Zane is certain that Mhina still thinks he's crazy, but the two of them have never had a more normal relationship in their lives than they do right now. Maybe being in Caeles's company forces a veneer of civility into their interactions, but Zane almost feels like Mhina isn't his enemy anymore...

Caeles finds Mhina mildly amusing. She met him through Zane and immediately clocked that he was trying to provoke them both, and from that point forward she was happy to play along. She enjoys that neither Mhina nor Zane know how to behave when all three of them are in the room at the same time.
