Zhang was relieved to that both Rillian and Loren were going to stay to answer his questions and get him up to speed on his new surroundings. After all, as the old aphorism went "two brains are better than one".

That thought caused him a moment of profound depression, which in turn, caused him to let out a resigned sigh, but he forced his attention back to the narratives he was listening to lest Rillian and Loren pick up on his dejected mental state, and also since it was vital he not miss any bit of information.
