I wouldn't be surprised, really. With two dragons down, I'm sure they're ready to start trying to usurp one another.

[thefirstbloom]

Don't say that. [Never mind the fact he's the one who suggested it. It's bad enough to think of another one. Get any worse and a rain cloud is gonna start forming overhead.]

You're... You're staying by the commander's side, aren't you? They did not name him Marshal, did they? It was one of his worst fears. [He frowned. Hope you can stand worried rambling.] I do not know much about your time in the jungle, but I have a feeling he relied on you heavily as another sylvari. You cannot let anything happen to either of you. Not after all you had to endure.

[canach]

[What a worrywort. Which is why he's not going to be happy with the answer.]

As far as I understood it, he turned down the position and is actually starting a guild of his own—Dragon's Watch. And he not only has me—when we reunited, he was with Taimi and Rytlock. Marjory also eventually joined us.

However, although our paths crossed, I have my own "mission" to accomplish. [He crosses his arms. While tracking Primordus would have been interesting, my focus is on Caudecus and obtaining my freedom. Saving the world is just a corollary benefit.

But I am sure our paths will cross again.

[thefirstbloom]

... I see. [Yep. Raincloud is ago. It isn't quite downpouring yet, but the lights are dimming and the cat nopes right off the counter. Bye.]

I see. I... I wish you the best on your journey, Canach. Remain strong. I don't want either of you returning here in the state I have.

[canach]

Nor I. [That's probably the nicest way he can say to that.

However, he is seeing that cloud and there's a small sigh.]

Please do not destroy your home again. Everything will resolve itself one way or another. Although I'd rather be resolving it rather than stuck here. [Again.]

[thefirstbloom]

What, you aren't content breaking news to a long since passed firstborn? I'm rather offended. [He smiles briefly, but it doesn't reach his eyes. He wouldn't destroy yet another house; self depreciating humor will suffice.]

Thank you for telling me, at the very least. I cannot say I'll be at peace knowing it, but... I appreciate you didn't disappear without a last word.

[canach]

Yes, I could have just kept it a secret and left you in the dark. [Is that a jab to the past? Maybe.]

But I did feel that you at least deserved to know the state of affairs, as troubling as they are. [Aw. How considerate.]

Now, unless you have any other questions, I shall leave you with your cats and... ...You're still seeing that elf girl? Lily or something? [He'll remember her name sooner or later.]
