The fanged grin drew a wrinkle of Tal's nose as he nodded slowly. "Yeah, sounds about right..." he agreed, mulling over the spread of the void stuff and remembering the conversation he and Maea had beneath Stormbreak, chasing the damn void-crow that had stolen his ring. He didn't look happy about the potential danger, but he didn't look surprised, either.
He shook his worries about the future off - at least partially - when Thalassa asked about his past experiences with the infected plants and critters and this time he didn't both to hold back his grimace of distaste. "Unfortunately, yeah," he acknowledged, reaching up to rub the back of his neck. "A fair bit, in pretty much every region I've stopped in. An' they've been gettin' worse every season. More infected critters, an' more dangerous ones." He shook his head, exhaling a huff of frustration. "An' then there's that damn voice that keeps poppin' up an' talkin' about some 'Family' bullshit. Any idea what that's about?"
