Chapter 27 Parents Arrive

• Nelson's words stirred up a huge commotion among the guests. They were all puzzled, having assumed Nelson was the Drakon, only to hear him deny it outright. What was going on here?
• Marvin instinctively wanted to stop Nelson. He couldn't understand why Nelson would pass up such a perfect chance to clear his name and gain immense honour and prestige!
• But Tatum held Marvin back, shaking his head without speaking. He understood what Nelson meant. The deaths of their comrades were a hurdle Nelson couldn't get over. Nelson had done all he needed to today, and whether to accept or refuse these honours was his choice. Tatum respected Nelson's decision.
