Viktor first took Eva inside the hut. When he stepped in, Boris immediately stood up.

"I am sorry, master… I…" the bodyguard said with his head down and eyes averted to the side. He currently did not have the courage to look his master in the eye.

This took some pressure off of everyone's mind for a moment.

"You two go check on Torri, I'm going to check the situation outside," Viktor said to Boris and Eva before heading back out.
