She then explained what had happened. About Azimuth, Shayd's attempted obliteration of Zenos and Lua, so on and so forth. Someone's been busy.

Like they're going to give it what it wants, so they stop. Watching the scene with an imperious gaze, as if Shayd was so beneath them it's not even worth dirtying their boots.

Well, she supposes having Shayd for a headmate is going to be one kind of hell. At least Axel had bottom lines he wouldn't cross, when it comes to pranks and jokes.

While it’s probably obvious Kahula is referring to Shayd in her reprimands, it is Azimuth who unfortunately takes those words at face value.
‘I really am horrendous...’
And this is the last thought they have before sleep is forced upon them: The thought of disappointing others.

"I blame Shayd." A lie.
A shock... doesn't come. The attempt at using it as a scapegoat is so obvious that it makes Azimuth feel worse when they anticipate the shock for badmouthing their puppeteer.

...Oh. There seems to be a bit of a misunderstanding.
Whenever Shayd, the puppetmaster, spoke, it was through Azimuth's mouth and body. There is only one physical body, but two beings control it. And one authority over the other.
That being said, fear has spread throughout Azimuth's body.

While Hauyne’s busy, Azimuth has a silent argument with Shayd in her head. All she can do is take the abuse as she fights a battle not meant to be won now. Her resilience is being tested, and while she isn’t victorious, she lets Shayd know it won’t get its way in the end.

Of course, she's helping them up, moving Azzy somewhere where they could rest with something to support their back. Soon, Azzy was propped against a tree trunk, with a big enough shade to shield them from the sun.
