Whose A Heretic Now?

Diarmuid swore that saw the fear leave Domari's eyes. He hoped desperately that the boy didn't take this knowledge as certain proof that his siblings were alive and well, but if he needed hope that was well and fine. They all needed a little hope now and then. Finding Domari had definitely given Diarmuid some of that. A faint smile returned to his grizzled features as he watched Domari speak, but it seemed the tone turned a touch more somber again as the boy asked if they should split up. In reality, it was the best way to cover more ground. But part of his mission included keeping track of Domari as well as retrieving the others, and he knew he needed to find a balance between them. "A smart idea," he'd muse, his voice low as he considered it. Briefly he closed his eyes, as though slipping deep into thought before eyeing Domari again. "I say we split up, but only temporarily. For no more than a day or two at a time. Close to sunfall, I'll call for you and we'll regroup. That way we can cover more ground while still staying in touch." The more militaristic part of him knew he could cover more ground on his own, but he was sworn to protect Domari as much as the others and he wouldn't willingly leave the boy on his own now that he'd found him. |
