Sad thing is, I don't think he is blackmailed. Maybe fooled or manipulated, but I don't think he is forced to work with Iavin. His first thought was "we work together" and he didn't appear to be stressed when contacting Iavin the end of the previous chapter. He also thought something about "stealing" and "Loa". Not sure what that means. But I doubt Xira is as innocent in all this as we would like to believe he is. He seems like a "good kid", but... you know, he surely doesn't act like one.

Oh, yeah, when the rest of the group figures out what happened at some point (AND THEY WILL), Xira will have some 'splainin' to do.
I'm dying to find out what Iavin is blackmailing him with as Xira strikes me as a good person who is driven to make bad choices out of desperation - is his family being held hostage?
Also - love, love, LOVE the silhouette panels with Xira pushing Aember over the cliff. It's very striking and perfectly conveys the atmosphere and mood that something VERY BAD is happening.
