MAEA
Her grip tightened around his hand, refusing to let go. "Whether or not I end up disappointed is all on me. You get as many chances as I can give, so don't worry about that. Right now, the only one I'm expecting you to care about is Astra. So... here is what we are going to do."
Straightening up to her full height, Maea made sure she had Loren's full attention before continuing.
"For the coming two weeks, this is your schedule. Every morning you will meet me here an hour before dawn, and we will train. Then you will tend to your duties as Court Healer, and when those are done for the day, you are going to spend two hours with Astra, doing whatever she wants to do. Go anywhere, do anything, but it is her decision and you will not deny her."
Pointing at the flask he had dropped on the floor, she brough it over with a tug of telekinesis and handed it to Loren. "You will cut down on drink too. You only get one of these a day from now on, and one bar visit ever sevenday. For every time you don't show up or break my instructions, I'll tag on another week of this. And when you manage these things without any hiccups... you're going to get something nice from me. Won't tell you what, but I can promise you won't hate it."
She regarded him, to see if he understood, if she was setting the bar too low. Most likely the drink would be his biggest challenge for now... but it was the most important part.
