Locking away anything that could make me vulnerable is all I've ever known. Mages who don't or can't do that don't last for long. Whether or not it's good for me, or him, it's better than dying.
Thank you. That means a lot.
I might take you up on it, if it gets to be too much. It would be good to have someone to talk to who understands, and who isn't Lalli.
Of course. Any time. And I mean that - there's no such thing as 'too much time has passed' or 'I ought to be doing better than this by now' or any of that. My offer has no expiration date.
Yeah. It was a long time ago, when I was a teenager. I stuck around as a ghost and then when I turned up here I was alive again. No idea how.

Hope that doesn't creep you out or anything.
