When all that has been tasked of me is done? I would very much like to rest. Then, travel with you, if you would allow it.
[ A simple shrug is given. ] I imagine Alisaie will hold me that well into eternity. She is not one to let go of things easily.

I... have to far not asked the state of you and your sister. I had figured I was not worthy of asking. But, tell me, how have the pair of you been since we have avoided the Eighth Umbral Calamity? The First has not been without its horrors and revelations. And, I would not think less of either of you if what I had asked of you left deep scars. In fact, I would find myself responsible and ask if there is anything I might yet do to help either of you...
