I couldn't utter my love when it counted
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now

It almost certainly was to protect him, though Koa didn't see it that way. Too raw and too recent; the wound of rejection still burns and festers, blinding him with its bitter taste. "Maybe." His shrug is almost nonchalant, the amount he cares evidenced by just how hard he's trying to pretend that he does not. Maybe she's doing her best to protect them, and he's too hurt to know it. Maybe he wouldn't have been so rattled, had she used any other word.
Maybe that was the point.
Both of them pause as the Enenra drifts past, two sets of wary eyes watching it plot its course. Pip's nostrils flare as she tracks it, a small puff of steam exhaled into the cool spring air. Koa feels the tension, too; almost wishes the ghost would approach, so he might direct his emotions somewhere else. Alas, the spirit drifts away, leaving Dragoon and dragon with only a hole in which to pour their pain.
"I want the same thing I've always wanted." Pulling the gold pod from his pocket, Koa contemplates the thing, his fingers running over grooves, searching for seams in the seamless globe. "I always knew I wanted to protect Stormbreak, and that the best way I could do that was by being a Dragoon. But these days it doesn't seem all that simple, y'know?" How is he supposed to defend its home, when the largest threat has already wormed inside?

Koa
And I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now
Ah, but I'm singing like a bird 'bout it now
