Edmund closely observed his mum's body language as she responded, searching for any hints of her exaggerating her well-being. He relaxed when her words rang true, smiling softly in return. "I'm happy to hear that." She deserved nothing but peace after everything that she'd been through.
The Ancient paused in surprise, his tail freezing mid-swing and his sandwich placed onto the plate in front of him. "You're leaving Torchline?" It's hard to picture his Mum anywhere else but the image of her surrounded by the quiet greenery of King's End seems fitting. After a moment he nodded, "King's End sounds like a great place for a fresh start. If you decide that that's what you want, I can help you pack and move." If there's any way that he can make the transition easier, he'll do it.
