The meeting with Xerob ended under relatively peaceful circumstances, with neither party persuading the other, but both Komer and Xerob understood that it was not in anyone's interest to break ties at this time. The situation had not yet escalated to a public fallout. Both sides still needed time to calm and adjust. Unity would benefit both while division would harm both. Both Komer and Xerob were wise and were not going to rush into a step like that.
