It's common for Teren to look angry-- it might even be her default expression-- but there's something about being stripped down in this fashion: weapons gone, armor gone, bags, all the many, many pointy tricks she had up her sleeve being removed that has her all but radiating flame from where she sulks against the makeshift prison wall. Reduced to naught but a skinny old woman with a dark braid unwound from its bun and hanging over her shoulder, her homicidal gaze burns holes into whomever happens to be standing (or sleeping) watch.

She hasn't said a word since they arrived; her teeth are gritting too tightly, for one thing. For another, it would be too easy to let on that she thinks they should've kept fighting, should've let a throat be cut for the greater victory. The lot of them deserved to die for how easily they were overcome, how stupidly that transpired.
But dying like this? That's unacceptable. That's insulting.
