Love mends even the broken parts
Shaking his head, Loren scrubbed his face a bit tiredly. "That's...none of that has ever been the problem." Lowering his hand, he shrugged a bit helplessly. "I'm good at...losing myself in the work, in distractions." Biting his lip, he stared at Maea with sad eyes. "But the...actually dealing with my emotions? My...trauma? In healthy ways?" He sighed, and looked out at the horizon again. "That's always been beyond me."
Letting out a huff of laughter, he smiled sadly. "You wouldn't like my actual dreams." For a moment his eyes grew haunted and he rubbed a nervous hand on his leg. "But...I don't know. I like helping people, still. I'm proud of the work I'm doing as Grand Healer, even if I haven't done much. So just...continuing to serve the people of Halo. To train in my magics and expand my knowledge." He let his voice trail off a bit uncertainly.
