Daryl follows up behind them, keeping a distance. He was there to be called upon as a character witness, but that didn't mean he had any right to stand where they were. Instead, he hung back near the barrier that separated the small audience from those currently petitioning. Arms crossed and fingers curled into the armholes of his vest while he waited to be asked to speak either by Faolan or the Council. They might not even choose to ask him to come forward. So hanging back seemed like a good idea until he was needed.
