The man-to-man meeting ended with nothing finalized.
While more serious talks followed, Uriah eventually sent Liam away, and for good reason.
Uriah had much to digest and even more to sort out. He knew far more about the Aetacia region, the Great Quiet Desert, and the southern region as a whole, so it fell on him to decide the next best move.
Of course, Liam could help, but he also understood the need for privacy after his revelations. Uriah likely wanted to discuss things with his wife before involving him again.
Moreover, while Liam was basically headed toward a leadership position inside the Tribe, he didn't know its actual capabilities. His input might just get in the way of making a plan.
Liam described his battle prowess, skills, and arsenal so Uriah could factor them into his decision before returning to his isolated quarters in one of the mine's empty tunnels. Still, he didn't arrange anything, leaving the place barren as he settled in a rocky corner.
