The hall fell into knee-deep silence.
Rudolf hadn't yelled. Yet, his voice carried an unquestionable authority that caused the nagging women to seal their lips.
Chris, Jenny, and the other streamers looked at him, feeling touched.

They could see that each era of people had its leaders, who came together to have meetings, probably related to food finding, information gathering, and other missions.
Bassano was the leader of all remaining 15 from his ear, as well as 7 others from the 1910s.
There were 2 others: Jason and Vladimir, who led separate teams. Now, adding Rudolf to the mix, there should be 4 leaders.
