I am Heaven sent, don't you dare forget
The story she tells is a scary one but he finds himself fascinated instead of afraid. The Mountain was an even cooler place then he had realized. Perhaps one day he would go to the Mountain as well, if only to discover what misguided souls were trapped at its peak. Honestly, the place sounded fascinated and he has half a mind to try the trek up it right then and there. She is upset though and so he keeps those thoughts to himself. Instead, he nods solemnly and starts to think.
“Listen…” He starts and stops, his insecurities apparent in the flames that flicker along his backside. “Why don’t you come with me? My mom might be able to help find your father.” He asks quietly, looking at her with those wary yellow eyes. Surely Aela wouldn’t mind. In fact, she might be pleased if he brought home someone with the same powers as himself, unaware that hers ran deeper and outranked his own summoning in spades. “Plus…. We can help each other. I could use someone to practice with that can see them. And I can show you how to keep the bad ones away… If you want.” He shrugs as if it doesn’t matter at all but it does. It does matter.
For some reason, it feels like it matters a lot.
