the baffled king composing hallelujah
Frowning at the news about Ashetta’s broken arm but nonetheless loosening his grip on her, Ronin allowed Remi to escape his embrace so that he could fully focus on the sister he thought he had lost. ”Get the good wine,” he suggested to the alchemist with a weak smile; it was strong and it didn’t taste like vinegar - perfect for a reunion like this, no?
”I try,” he murmured to Ashe, leading her further into the guildhall so they could sit down in one of the comfortable chairs close to the hearth. If Isla was going to fetch Vai and Felix, they would have a lot on their hands very soon. Best to get comfortable and enjoy the quiet while they could. Smoothing the ex-assassin’s hair out of her face and looking her over, guilt flashed across Ronin’s face as he learned where she had been.
”Out in the storms? Fuck, Ashe. I’m so sorry... I just... I thought you and Kalt had taken off to explore, once the barrier had fallen.”
