Haitin could tell that Aksai wasn't fully engaged in their conversation.
It seemed as if Aksai's mind was preoccupied with something far more pressing than their current situation.
Haitin assumed Aksai was worrying about his safety and the security of Emerald Cove, especially after killing Bai Yu, a prominent figure from Silver Moon Palace.
"Brother Aksai, are you worried about Silver Moon Palace's retaliation against you and Emerald Cove because of Bai Yu's death?" Haitin asked, his voice calm but laced with concern.
In truth, Aksai was more concerned about the potential dangers lurking in Acarnis and Sharang—the two worlds he planned to revisit soon. But he saw no need to correct Haitin's assumption.
Sometimes, it was better to let people think what they wanted. His silence was answer enough for Haitin, who took it as confirmation.
