>"Hey.."
Mudy quietly walks over and sits next to her.
>"What does the night sky, twinkling with a thousand thousand fires, make you think of?"
, he whispers softly.
He feels Raital's arm wrapping around his shoulder.
>"Y.. Your eyes."
, she whispers back.
Mudy leans into her embrace. He feels such an intense peace when with her, yet a cold piercing shadow always interrupts - That of a past and future full of horrors and darkness.
He clears his throat, subtly signaling that he would like to discuss something serious, and asks her if she knows anything about her father.. his father.. their siblings' fathers..
Raital is silent for a moment, then shakes her head.
>"I.. I really don't know."
, she whispers.
>"I think only Luhra Luhra knows about our fathers.. You know we were never allowed to ask about it."
Mud nods. He remembers.
Raital continues,
>"But-- I did overhear that the Skullking sought out the most powerful men across the continent to carry their children, but I don't know what she did with them afterwards. Maybe our fathers still live in the Citadel.. or returned home... or she destroyed them..."
It sounds more like Raital is talking to herself, repeating a previously considered monologue. Mudy suspects that the question lay heavily on her mind as well.
