Besides having Zara spread the false news that Rathal was the one who killed the ADM, Evan decided to lay out his new rules for how Zeraxes would be managed going forward, now that he was technically the true ruler of the Archipelago.
His new rules were that there wouldn't be any changes to how things were run.
Despite his talk about 'new management,' he ended up just telling Zara to continue running the Archipelago the same way she had been for decades.
The only difference was that she worked for him now, so if he needed her influence, authority, or forces, he would send down orders.
After that, he went on to have some more friendly spars with Leoniel while they waited for the rest of the ocean to be cleared of corpses, and for the remaining monsters to be dealt with, all to open a path for the Voyager to safely continue its journey to the Beta Continent.
This took several weeks to finish, and during that time, the ADM's appearance and quick death became the talk of the world.
