Staying vs. Going.
After a night of feasting and well wishes, the branch clan had decided that it was time for them to make the long journey back to Stone Claw City.
With this goal in mind, the branch clan immediately went to work packing and preparing for the trip, not exactly sleeping during the process.
It was during this hectic state of movement that Zhen Liu was found laying in his suite's bed while staring at the ceiling. His bags were already packed, due to not bringing much in the first place. That and because he used the zakos to help put everything away.
While his body wasn't moving, his mind was hosting a tribunal with Logos and Pathos. He could technically have done all this while moving about, maybe he could've also made it at least look like he was meditating, but he found it easier to communicate with them while he was laying down like this.
At least that's what he told himself, when he realized how lazy it made him look to outsiders.
