At least, not until he knows that he’s going to be okay, and it’s that which has him stilling a touch to let Danta take a quick superficial look before the question hits. “I am.” He confirms, refraining from saying until they get to the grounds and he’d very much like to go and see their favorite healer, because he knows that would make it that much worse.

Lead the way.” He murmurs softly, steps already taking them below so that he might show him which cabin they’re staying in.
