Jigano answers with far more information than expected. Seiji nods, imagining as he speaks a legion of tiny warriors, a fortress of trees. This is both better and worse than the previous confines of the barrier. Living, sentient creatures may be reasoned with. But he doesn't truly wish to reason at all. Only to leave.
"You have learned so much," Seiji says at last. He is glad to have the young Griffin in his lap, giving his hands something to do. "It must have been difficult." He feels a little reassured to learn of Jiganos hesitation, similar doubts to his own put into words between them. Seiji is aware now that he trusts Jigano, so much as he trusts anybody in this place.
"The Loreseekers are busy?" He asks. Not so much a question as a statement, a way of leading toward his next question. This one he should have asked some time ago, when last he found himself in this comfortable hall, before the crackle of flames. "I would like to join you, if I can," he adds, his voice calm despite the slight increase in his pulse. "Do you need… more? I am tired of doing nothing. Knowing nothing."
