Washed away

He saw the gleam of wonder in her eyes as Eterna appeared, wonder or fear? Or was it both? She certainly seemed distracted by the bird. And when she came to the meal... She ate it bones and all! They weren't starving her, were they? Maybe the meals came unreliably. Hm.

He tilted his head quizzically when she commented on her understanding of Trauma Specialists, "What? Oh! No, not- The tea! I was talking about the water, there in the bowl. It's just some water I let herbs infuse with their medicinal properties, with a little honey! So it's sweet. It'll help your body heal." By the stars he was messing this up as royally as he could wasn't he?

He tilted his head the other way as she said something about great sins and the spirit of the bear? Oh boy, he got this one straight out of the loony bin, didn't he? What are sins? He deduced by her words "committing" and "punish" around it to mean something along the lines of breaking a rule.

He wanted to run away and ask Bas all the questions. He thought he was so ready for this. Nope, he was so unprepared.

He drew in a breath and looked at his supplies for redressing her wound. It could probably wait until after another couple of questions.
He turned back around to Vesper, it was a pretty name, trying to understand her more.
"What great sin have you committed? Will your old masters come by to make sure you received your punishment?" It was a stretch and he made some assumptions. He was a fighter and a healer! He was not used to these games of strategy one bit.
