HARPER
He will never know these men. Their faces will always be smudged imitations drawn from Kiada's efforts to impart them upon him. In the grand scheme of things, it would seem a useless endeavor to tuck away knowledge about a man who never existed in this land and one who had been struck from it already. Nevertheless he listens with intent ears and an empathetic heart, letting her remember better times and reach past the grief to the good beneath.
"They sound like exemplary men," he agrees softly. "I wish I had been able to meet them, but thank you for telling me about them." Now there is one more soul in the world who will carry the torch of their memory, and Harper is happy to do so. "Remembering the good times I had with my parents helped me mourn them. If you ever want to talk about Kianzo or Ru'in, I'm ready to listen." She would likely need the strength of their gilded memories when facing Ru'in once more next LongNight.
