Your instincts would be far better than mine on this subject, my friend. You have knowledge of your sister that none else have. What do those instincts say?

[ His smile turns gentle. ] I remember every encounter we have had. Not that I would expect to hold such an impression to be remembered. It was, after all, a fair amount of time for you as well. Much has happened since then. Doma, the war, and countless other adventures I doubt I know of.

[ He nods, gesturing to the bucket. ] I believe we shall. If I may ask of you to make sure as many of them are in good shape? I have a few more preparations to make here to the side. We can certainly continue our conversation as we work.
