He listened with twinkling eyes as she detailed how things had been going, head cocking at the mention of meeting a healer, a grin flashing his teeth as he remarked, “That’s excellent. Paladin does a lot of the same things. It helps having a fire going year round in the alcoves.”
She seemed particularly excited, and his ears flicked with subtle interest, but laughed softly at her reflection, snickering at her finishing remark. “I’m understanding Aurielle’s reasoning for throwing me out on my ear from time to time to explore the world. It’s refreshing, taking in new sights and smells and breathing different air. I’ve been as far east as the mangroves on the coast. And I’m pretty sure I’ve been to the top of the world. Maybe that’s stretching it a little, but that particular place takes the breath away.”
A smile settled on his lips as he thought back to the sea of clouds he’d gazed down on from the temple Aurielle had brought him, Domari and Caelia to.
He tossed a following smirk at her, adding, “I am indeed lucky.”
