Lan Zhan will be back tonight, he tells himself firmly. They will send no visitors beyond Zewu-jun; Lan Qiren cannot stand guard in Cold Pond Cave every hour. Today he will sift through his notes to find everything he can about warning talismans, and communication through barriers, and Harrow's experiments with controlling bone beyond the inn's closed door. He will find a way to keep Lan Zhan safe.
Once the dishes are returned, and Lan Zhan's hands are free again, he takes hold of one of them as they walk to the front door.
