I'm coming back again
I want to live tonight
Her worry is palpable and his easy going usual smile fades as the corner of his lips deepen and curve downwards. Her attention is distracted and he is quick to pick up why when she murmurs about her family in Hyaline. No wonder she was troubled. “I wish I had better news. Or more of it.” He says gently, his own expression turning into one of concern as he looks at her. “The little I’ve gathered is that the rulers there have turned… well… wrong in some way.” He shrugs slightly, knowing how vague that was but having no clear or concise details to give her.
For a moment the conversation turns back to Loess and he nods in agreement to her wisdom, something they had both witnessed over the many years that had passed. “Have you noticed how little seems to actually change though? Titles and their holders adapted and modified as kingdoms get passed around but the land and it's ideals always seem to stay the same… Unless another Reckoning occurs.” He murmurs darkly, a time that he had lived through and survived amongst many other things. “Still, she is bright and hopeful. Sometimes that is enough.”
He pauses, looking at her as an idea comes to mind. “Perhaps this is bold as we’ve only just met… But I’ve got a lot of time on my hands. If you want company to Hyaline to check in on your family, I’m happy to come with you.” He looks at her with his good eye, trying not to seem too eager for an adventure. The thought of returning to Sylva, alone, is not a pleasant one and perhaps seeing what was going on in Hyaline for himself would help out Cheri and Oceane in the long run. Besides, maybe Beyza could use a bear as an escort, unaware that she was far more powerful compared to the beast that he was.
