Meanwhile, at Table Three

He set the final tile down. “Tenpai,” Temuulen said. 

“Tenpai,” three other voices repeated around the table. 

There was a pause, and then a groan from Gwayne Piper, the hyur. “That’s the second time.” 

They dealt the tiles out once more. 

Once more, it was tenpai, one and all.

This repeated for what felt like eternity until finally someone won a hand and they were allowed to continue on.
