Another frown touched his forehead as she spoke, of a god who took her children, and he… didn't quite know what to do, or say, to the news. Had similar not happened to Zariah? A god, or at least a spirit, had taken her child in exchange for protection of her school?
Had Delphine given her children up willingly?
It wasn't a topic that he was comfortable with breaching openly, and so he would remain wilfully ignorant on it for now. She claimed that they were happier now, but he couldn't help wonder if they would be happier with her, and if not, why? Was she a poor mother, a bad example, unable to provide for them? He didn't dare make assumptions, but her words left him feeling… uneasy.
He guarded his expression well though, diving into the new topic given with gusto, happy for the distraction from his otherwise troubling thoughts. "It would have to be quite a robust greenhouse to weather the sorts of storms Halo endures. But perhaps with a bit of magical reinforcement from generous mages something like that could be viable." He hmmed at the idea, chewing it over in his head.
"I was raised on a farm, though in a far different climate to here, so yeah, I have some knowledge of crops and trees and how they can be manipulated. I also hope to get some livestock production happening in Halo." He nodded to a Ningo that scurried between houses as they walked past, smirking slightly. "I'll need all the help I can get when the time comes for implementation."
He smiled kindly as he opened the door to the Kraai for her to step inside, where warmth and the quiet hum of conversation could be felt and heard.
