RONIN
THE FALLEN STAR
"It's fine to say hello. She's grumpy, but she knows you," Ronin assured his daughter, waiting until they reached the pool before crouching down before Seren so she could see the little dragon properly. The pale reptile, for her part, trilled at the star child and snuffled at the air in front of her, the ribbons of her tail curling about Ronin's neck and shoulders.
"Of course it's okay. Seren, a lot of people make different choices to the ones we might make, but that doesn't make them bad people. Nate might be an Ascended, but he's also a doctor, and he's Sunjata's friend. So there's no reason why we can't be his friend, right?" Waiting for her to get her fill of giving Sugar attention, Ronin rose to his feet once more and turned back to the pool so they might start their lesson.

now don’t you lose hope
I swear I never dream that we’re alone
I swear I still believe but I don’t know
