[there are so many questions that everyone has a burning need to ask, and while there are individual concerns, most of them have the same thoughts of if Dohalim is going to be alright. but seeing as their lord is in extreme duress, their own needs can be put on the backburner. there may be a bit of wariness of letting Zhongli handle this, but it seems as if he's got the situation mostly under control, especially now that Dohalim's calmed down, for the most part.
but there are questions of what work will be delegated and to who, but Zhongli may choose to put aside those requests for later. but the rest of the crowd slowly starts to disperse, and the guards who'd been disarmed earlier come back with their weapons hilted at their sides and an offer to stand by the door to Dohalim's room to deter anyone from coming in so he can get some much needed rest.
all the while, Dohalim himself stays quiet, gaze averted from everyone. an arm had managed to snake its way around Zhongli's waist, hand grasping weakly at his back as he grows more and more desperate to be away from the attention. he's feeling so overwhelmed at the moment, and wants to tell everyone to leave, but he can't muster the strength to say even that. hopefully the deity can shoo them away soon...]
