OLIVER
Loren seemed to make the most sense out of everyone who has given him this same spiel. They always talked about things that only seemed to make Oliver feel like shit or angry. However, Loren seemed to know exactly what to say to describe the reasons why the gods may choose to ignore him. Maybe they ignored his prayers because they knew what he would be capable of, that he wouldn't need their help to get answers. As much as Oliver wanted to get his memories back immediately, maybe he should wait it out. Who knows what his magic could bring.
It hurt to know that people wouldn't be kind to him now that it would become known that he had magic. It would be easy to hide it, after all, only Loren knew about his magic abilities. Oliver could ask him to keep it a secret...but was that really a healthy thing? To hide his magic? Hell, he wouldn't even be able to practice.
"Thank you Loren...for everything. He smiled at the other man and glanced off to the side, knowing that he'd have to be leaving very soon. "I hope that you're right...that not only will I enjoy having magic, but also that I can learn to use it. I'll try not to accidentally start any fires...or do whatever it is that my other magic can do."
