[When the feed starts, Jehan is clearly not in his cabin. He's down by the shore.

And he's been crying. His voice is hoarse and when he speaks, his accent is a bit thicker than usual]

If...if anyone else knew Zane, son of Venus, he...

[He wants to say "died". Died would be so much easier than the truth]

He was a...he was an agent of the Red Room. This entire time. He...he was here to spy on us.

[And he cuts the IM. As he does, you can see him break down yet again. It's going to be a long time before he recovers from this heartbreak]

I didn't either, but I didn't know what was going on at first and...well, it was all so strange that I thought maybe the magicians were up to something.

I don't think anyone would blame you for being suspicious. You didn't have all the information.

[He squeezes Jehan's hand again.]

[shylyintrepid]

I wish I still didn't, to be honest.

[unstinting]

I wish none of this had happened, if we are being honest.
