Would you dare try to kill Sliske? And I'd argue against that. I'm relatively sure there were even fewer Zarosians present. There were four at this ritual, two of which we freed from where they had been since the third age. Jhallan, while he would have been a great sacrifice, was the only logical Zarosian. Wahiestiel(did I actually spell that right?) was hiding his allegience, and he isn't weak enough to consider.

You have to wonder how weak the 15th-17th ritual sacrifices were to save Jhallen.
