dark, you can't come soon enough for me
Mandalocks speaks up, describing a strange illness of the mind that’s befallen her mother. He is confused, he’s never heard of the like, but he supposes Mandalocks would know more about it than himself. She’s been living here with Blazed after all. “Is there no hope then?”
It’s a bleak thing to ask, but Mandalocks herself seems to have given up already. Clearly her mother’s illness must be beyond hope. And at least she’s not falling into the trap of considering asking a tainted one to heal her.
She looks up at him, and his heart breaks for the poor girl. This is too much for her, too much for anyone to handle in such a short time. Meeting her father, losing her mother …
He glances down at the earth, then tentatively meets her eyes. “Mandalocks … I … I know we’ve just met. And I don’t want to overstep my bounds, but … is there anything I can do for you?”
