The room was in silence after Yale killed someone without batting an eye in a place where that was forbidden.
Among those who have seen it, there was a mix of impressions. Some thought that Yale did wrong because the rules should never be broken, while others felt that someone who used the friends of someone as a threat was better dead even if it meant breaking some rules.
However, no matter their opinions, they didn't dare to speak recklessly. The rules of the Council of Gods had been broken, but the one who broke them wasn't someone they wanted to offend.
Since they didn't want to oppose the Council of Gods nor Yale, everyone was hesitating about speaking.
Having internal strife just before a war would be a problem, and they knew that the Time Faction with its allies was enough to provoke it.
