Kain stepped onto the platform last, just behind Malzahir. And while out of sight of the others, he gave a signal to the already released Bea, who released her newly acquired mental field to only envelop Malzahir.
Thanks to Serena's reminder, Kain had finally realized he and Malzahir were very ill-prepared for the questioning.
Not only did they not vet backstories against one another, but he also made no countermeasures against mental-attribute skills. And most Dawnbringers, as the counter-intelligence division of the Order, possess mental-attribute abilities. Meaning that rather than torturing him for answers, Malzahir would likely be controlled or hypnotized for them.
Kain is already resistant to mental control—especially since Bea got stronger. However, Malzahir as an ordinary person now, would be extremely easy to get talking.
