Lily's voice was unexpected but welcome after the way she had kept the luxere together after the Guild had been set ablaze. Jigano paused his work to turn and give her weary smile, uncertain of whether or not he wanted company...
But entirely sure that he didn't want to be alone.
"Lily, it's good to see you. I'm sorry I didn't thank you yet for what you did during LongNight... both the concert and the luxere. That song for Arduinna was lovely." Bright and brave to stir the blood - and to keep the darkness at bay, as it had turned out. He glanced around the messy not-quite-forge, his smile faltering again as the memories pressed in, and he turned back to her with a decision already made.
"I would very much appreciate some help. This was Caiside's forge... or it was going to be. We were going to put the finishing touches on it after LongNight. But I was too slow to open the door when he came knocking," the bard finished softly. "I couldn't stand letting the monsters get away with ruining this as well. So I'm trying to get it cleaned up as much as I can. I don't suppose you have any experience with smithies?" he asked, attempting to lighten the mood with a more innocent question.
