Goody guy Gaza would like to think that even if Van had openly shown his other son disdain, that Gaza would have tried to be friends with him. I mean everyone likes chasing camels right? Even Pevensie did, and she was the Queen now! It as an activity everyone could shamelessly bond with.
So you see, he wasn’t actively avoiding Kreios. He just wasn’t actively seeking him out until the thirst to know the rest of his family took a vicious hold.
Except for Isadore. He’d probably never want to meet Isadore.
And let’s get one thing straight - he is neither little (though not so big as either Kreios or Kratos), nor young (yes, he is, but the world considers that to be an adult’s age, so no child pity please!), though he has had a certain lack of guidance in his life. I mean look at his family: Yael is so kind, and Zilpah is so silly. He’s never met Mikhael or Etro, and how can his siblings guide him? There was Vanquish… and then there wasn’t. So he seems to be adrift, finally, finally grasping at straws for some sort of direction.
They ask him a question he’s not prepared for; he’s thought a little bit about the future, but mostly in the vein of whether or not he wants to stay in the Desert. He is silent for a couple of seconds, clearly mulling the idea over. “Well…” he begins, “I’m not sure, really. It sounds like a good option, but I honestly don’t know if I’ll stay in the Desert. I would feel kind of bad leaving Ima, but I’ve never seen the rest of Beqanna…” He shrugs his big black shoulders, trying to downplay the fact that he’s never left the Desert, and that is kind of pathetic. Then Gaza tries to throw in a joke. Cause why not? “I mean, the only mares I know are my family and the Queens so… what do I know of women?”
Huh. Maybe the Tundra would be the best place for him. Or the Amazons. They’d know what to do with him.
