Okay?
Was he? No. Surely not. So they should get into it, and waste no time.
"Vi, it seems, has lost his patience with me." Noah said, chin lifting as he did. "I have not been cursed, but I have been chained." Even though he had moved his family here for what he thought was the season, it looked a thought Vi had other plans. "I am not to leave the Hollowed Grounds until I have brought Vi's glory to this place, shown these people his love and grace and power."
A lump lodged in Noah's throat and he tried to swallow it down several times before he spoke again. "My hesitancy was enough for a greater punishment." His voice was stone despite the pit bobbing in his throat and the white hot sting of tears at the threshold of his lashes. "I have failed him, and I will not again." Glacier eyes swept over the levinsward before landing on the Warden.
