But what do you know? Riley wasn't particularly angry about how that sounded.
He was angry about how dangerous that could have been.
Okay, fine. He was also angry when he first heard the general concept because the bastard could have led with the important bits instead of telling the story in the most infuriating order possible.
He could have just said it plainly! But no, Kael had to let him boil first.

Nothing, apparently.
Or rather, it wasn't about what he did—it was about what he allowed to happen instead.
After the incident at the dragon estate, Kael had initially insisted on his side of the story. But instead of understanding, people began looking at him as though he had lost his mind.
The only reason no one said it aloud was that several of them had witnessed what he did to the nest when he escaped. They knew better than to provoke him.
