Exchanging Blows Or Pummeling Her.

The other security elder refused to agree with Stein's evaluation that Soverick was exchanging blows with his mother. He turned to Elder Stein and asked, "What do you mean exchange blows? Soverick was pummeling her."

"Shhhh." Elder Stein quickly shut him up. Then he whispered to his partner, "I was trying to be polite."

Except he wasn't really whispering. His voice is always loud so whispering is at the normal level of loudness. Everyone can hear what he said very clearly.

Then he turned to Mihila who seems to be furious about something. He said to her, "It wasn't that bad. You can be very proud of the son you have birthed."

His partner totally agreed with him this time. "Yes, he is so much better than my son. My useless son was the one that made me delay the life evaluation of your kids."
