"Take it from me."

Torben remained where he was, but felt it was prudent to express what he felt. Listening to Audra's words was like a familiar knife through his heart, his thoughts. He felt the same about Valhalla, to be frank. He didn't know if he would remain there. But at least he could offer her advice, however helpful that could be to her.

"If ye ain't open to trying... you'll gain nothin' from new experiences" he bit back a sigh, shaking his head instead "if ye don't let yerself get hurt, ye won't get hurt, true. But ye also seclude yourself, build a wall... So when the right folks come 'long, it takes twice as long to crumble naturally." He shifted his weight.

"M' the same way, though. I let other folks get in, but not really. I listen to 'em and talk to 'em, but I don't take much from the conversation. I distance me self. Already prepared to do it" he breathed "and I don't let an'one close. It's easy fer me to say these things, but, aye... It is hard." He smiled almost sadly at the space between them.

"If ye ever need a listenin' ear, ye can come to Valhalla's border. I cannae promise I'd be there all the time... but it helps t' talk."
