LOREN
Returning Hotaru and Kiada's greetings, Loren returned his attention to Wessex. "As good as LongNight can be. How was yours?" He matched the Wraith's tone as best he could.
Astra, having greeted Kiada, returned to his side. She stared at the demi-goddess as she explained the party's presence. For his part, the healer's eyebrows crept higher and higher up his forehead as Wessex spoke. When she finished, he pressed his lips together.
Finally, he nodded once, carefully. "Don't mind if I do." His tone was as neutral as he could make it under the circumstances. However, as soon as the Wraith had brought up the Eirachi, Loren's expression had grown dark and veiled. Still, he fell in at the back of the group without further question or complaint.

But don’t be weary if it’s broken
Families are like that—
they’re split up and always torn.
