At her reassurance, he subsides, but only halfway. A wrinkle still furrows his brow. Shangque still watches the doorway his lord disappeared through, but at least now he feels he can take his eyes off it. He listens out. If his lord does not always follow laws -- well, often, neither do others when they encounter him. Still. He has been ordered to stay behind, so he will. He can wait. (He can wait.)

"Then what would happen?" he asks. Even if there is no harm, there must still be -- a punishment, perhaps. That is the way humans structure their laws, after all. (Immortals too, more often than not, but Shangque thinks of his yuezhu, and smiles to himself when he knows he cannot say they all do.)
