Sighing, Loren bit his lip at Jigano's comment. "A bad lucky bastard." Letting out a laugh that had no mirth in it, the healer nodded slowly. "That sounds about right." Rubbing a hand against his thigh, he looked at the bard with a broken smile and haunted eyes.
At the mention of Amalia and Jyoti, sadly, the Launceleyn's eyes tightened slightly. "You'd know better than I. I haven't heard anything from her since..." His voice trailed off and his eyes flicked away, and he swallowed uncomfortably. Since Abasi died. The words that were too hard to voice slid quietly through the bond.
Standing up, he turned to face the white-haired man. "On the subject of Astra, I should probably check to make sure she doesn't need grooming again." It was clearly an attempt by Loren to get away from the touchy subject of those so-called friends who hadn't reached out him in the aftermath of his loss, and he hugged his arms to himself. "Thanks for meeting." He nodded carefully at Jigano, before the healer turned to head back down the mountain.
