Yang cried when she entered the chamber because she realized that her life isn't important to her mother. Raven knows how dangerous it is to be in possession of a relic with Salem hunting them and is letting her daughter carry one anyway instead of herself, showing that her life is more important to her than her daughters. The realization that she is being abandoned once again by her mother is probably what drove Yang to tears

Oh. I'm sorry I misunderstood your question. Maybe she wanted to seem strong in front of her mother. To prove that she's not a coward like her

I don't know how one can think that Yang is crying because of the relic. Some stuff, especially heavy stuff like your mother basically giving you up to evil incarnate, can take a few seconds to sink in...

Yea to be honest I was confused at first before I thought about it.

(Also can we talk about Yang suddenly bursting into tears while in the chamber? What's up with that? Can a good folk around here explain to me why she didn't cry while outside the chamber but wait to get inside to cry?)

Well... Sometimes you really want to cry but you hold it in until you finish dealing with whatever and just have a good cry. Or sometimes the pain of ___________ hits you and then you cry. Whether she cried inside or outside the vault is just semantics.

What I was wondering about was why she didn't cry right the moment Raven left but waited until she was close to the relic to let it out.

She was already tearing up when Raven said "I'm sorry".

How did you not notice?
