Elizabeth
Elizabeth let out a soft, understanding hum, leaning her head back slightly to wonder at the psychology of it all. "Depending on the reasons, hiding isn't always a bad thing. It's a natural instinct that can protect us - keep us safe from harm." There was a gentle reassurance and validation, confirmation that Alys wasn't wrong for wanting to preserve herself amongst all the terrifying uncertainties from her visions.
However, she noted the regret in the seer's tone, the desire for change, and she would never discourage such a thing. Smiling gently, she added, "That doesn't mean we always have to listen to it though." She took a small, casual sip of her tea as she navigated how to guide Alys along her own decisions. Tilting her head, she lowered her mug. "What would you prefer to do?" Not accusative, but a kernel of suggestion to get her thinking about her own desires and how she might adjust her actions.
