OLIVER

Within the eye, mysteries of the soul burn deeply beneath the fiery chasms of love

and patiently wait for an awakening

Bastien was right and Oliver knew it. Learning to draw wasn't going to be easy, not in the slightest. Seeing others draw incredible things sometimes looked easy, but Oliver had realized by now how challenging it was to draw...really anything. Comparing his art to others always felt bad, but he tried to keep his head up. Drawing brought him a sense of peace and calmness that was welcomed with open arms. Nodding in agreement, Oliver spoke in a calm voice, glancing down at the mice he had drawn. "Yeah, I have no plans of stopping anytime soon." Until he ran out of space in his sketchbook, then he'd have to wait until he could get ahold of another. "Only downside is that I'm starting back at square one almost. Any skill I once had is probably just lost, along with all my other memories." He was frustrated, both with himself and with the general idea. He had no idea if he once was great at drawing or why he was so drawn to it.


Oliver's feelings towards Amun were complex, but then again, weren't all his feelings complex? He wasn't sure how to feel towards really anyone, Amun just had new angles that others didn't. He too was happy to change the subject, not ready just yet to face those ideas.

Hearing of the Sanctuary was great. To know that Bastien had always been a kind person was absolutely reassuring. It brought a smile to Oliver's face. There was so much to address and well, they did have plenty of time. With deep interest reflecting from his eyes, Oliver looked up at Bastien. "That's incredible...I'm so glad that you were able to bring that to Venice." Oliver may remember nothing but he was almost positive that he wasn't from Venice or anywhere in Italy from that matter. Oh shit I know what Venice is. He'd have to ask about that later, for all he knew maybe he came from the same world as Bastien.

"I'm glad that you were able to keep it up somewhat here. What do you do at your guild currently? There was obviously far more he wanted to ask of Bastien. He wanted to learn more about where he came from, eager to see if maybe, just possibly, it'd help him remember his own world. Who knows, maybe they came from the exact same time, merely from different locations.
