Keeping Yeza still, especially in such a precarious location, wasn't exactly an easy task. However, the painter didn't seem to mind the occasional waving of her arms or crawling and continued to focus on his work.
Either that, or the painter was too scared to bring up the issue.
Nevertheless, the painter and Prince Thomas let the trio go after a couple of hours. The portrait was still incomplete, but their presence was no longer needed. Actually, someone else with more important tasks demanded it.
Khan, Liiza, and Yeza ended up trading one building for another, entering a flat that had been rearranged into a lab. Soldiers and scientists were still working on it, too, arranging various consoles and the just-teleported equipment, but the place seemed ready to fulfill its primary purpose.
Surprisingly, the person in charge of that lab wasn't the usual Garret. Khan and Liiza didn't even find Abraham waiting for that in that rearranged flat.
