Dutiron hadn't intended upon bringing her sadness though to be honest it was a topic that couldn't really be ignored. She'd been too ill to be aware of it at the time but would surely realise soon enough for herself that Ludicael had been struggling with the illness, in fact all of Alacritia had. It was better her told her now rather than later and at least the cure had been found and Novel wasn't recovering to find that she was the only one on the mend.
"I'm sure she'll certainly stick around long enough for that, even if she does have plans to leave again." He responded, the comment of course in regards to Harmony. He hadn't really had the chance to speak to her again yet, though hopefully he and Novel soon would.
Dutiron would settle down at his mate's side now, certainly not planning on going anywhere and it didn't seem that his mate urgently needed anything either. He hadn't asked of course though she didn't seem too troubled. Her tone would grow a little more serious now however as she apologised to him. To be honest he would have swapped places in a heart beat, anything to see his mate healthy and no longer afraid of the imaginary ghost that had haunted her during her sickness, equally though he certainly understood her guilt. He would have hated putting her though the very same worry he had been under as of late.
"I had the pack around me, I wasn't alone." He pointed out as he begun to nuzzle her once more. Of course it wasn't quite as same as having Novel at his side, after all in his humble opinion she was the better leader out of the two of them. "I'm just glad to see you getting better now. Is there anything you need?"
