"You always do, sweetest one." He assured her.
The inside of his cheek puckers as he nibbles at it, considering her question. "We believed that the Core was her body. The Voice just...a manifestation of it. When the barrier fell and the Core seemingly destroyed, we assumed that couldn't be the case, as she still persisted.." Mort explains. "But if the Core exists still...then perhaps we weren't as wrong as we believed."
His fingers are soft, shockingly so, as if he's never done a day of work in his life. Indeed his body is lean and without muscle, giving off the incorrect impression that he has lived an easy life. With a light chuckle, Mort nods. Around them the trees seem to sigh and curl inwards; not begging for death, but pleased enough to be so close to the one who gives their lives meaning.
"No, no Frey wouldn't be." Mort agreed, the smile tugging at his lips colouring his words as well. "But that isn't what I mean, daughter. When you're out in the world, day to day...is there no one with you?"
