Anvar is waiting just outside the nexus room, standing watching the pattern with a fixed stare. He does not notice Tiero, watching him in turn, nor Mina and Jakin, who come and watch with Tiero for a bit, then leave. Tiero watches Anvar lean back against the wall and wait, and it is Tiero who notices the shimmering in the air that precedes Inric's arrival. His arrival - with a new person, whose skin has an almost greenish tinge. Anvar nearly misses them, jerking awake as they pass him on their way out of the nexus room.
