Anju
It's a comfort that he relents, accepting of her worries and complaints where others might have grown defensive of their own talents and life choices. "There is no shame in admitting that it isn't what you thought it would be," she murmurs, only capable of imagining the disappointment, the lack of surety, from having left everything he'd known to try and deal with his grief and being thrust into the situation he was now in.
Conceding his points with a tired bob of her head, Anju sits quietly for a few long moments, considering. There was no easy answer to either predicament.
"Maybe you can visit Stormbreak more, and I can visit here? Perhaps have a few young Dragoons patrol down here for experience?" Not only would it allow him to be near others more frequently who could watch his back, but it would get boots on the ground in the Greatwood. A wry smile overtakes her face. "Koa Carpenter has been trying to turn the Dragoons into a cross-regional force, unsuccessfully. Maybe this would be the easiest start for him to prove it can be done." Or at all useful to the leaders he has been trying to pawn the idea off to. And if it means Liam returns to Stormbreak more? Well, he doesn't need to know how much that would mean to her.
