Thanks for the update. I'm... surprised at how this went through in the end. Ellen stopping because she couldn't bear to see him crying (really impressive even. Most of the crying tropes have shown us they'll just be left behind due to the... heavy reveal and emotion+tension in the air). Still, I'm glad Caidel already had a self realization long ago.
Why am I not surprised at Noah not even fulfilling his promise of laying low and waiting for Ellen to come to him?
