NOAH
I wait and tell myself "life ain't chess,"
A wave of both embarrassment and relief flooded over Noah at Loren's response. The hunter was not sure how he could feel both of those things at the same time, but he did. He chuckled some, in a nervous response, but he felt his shoulders lighten. "I get that," Noah stated, moving to clean up where he had worked. "Since the portals opened, people have just been exploring. It seems to be something so natural to them, moving about through the portals. I can't do it so easily. I've barely explored the rest of Caido open to me. I would rather just stay here. There's something...uneasy about it in my gut. I don't know what it is or why, but when I think of it in comparison to how others travel so easily it makes me feel almost like an outcast, in a way." Maybe Noah was just built to be a homebody, with the small thrills that Halo had to offer.
But no one comes in and yes, you're alone...
