LOREN
As Kiada explained her relationships to those she'd mentioned before, Loren cleared his throat almost delicately. "Got it." There was a slight flush to his cheeks, and he ran his hand through his hair.As she brought up her twin, he sent a pulse that was equal parts sympathy and understanding towards her. "I know what it's like to miss your siblings. And your twin." Despite the fact that he'd been reunited with Neron, and despite the fact that their relationship was less than ideal, the healer meant that.
Nodding as she mentioned Dorobo and Korofi were neighbors, he smirked. "Let me guess. Your kingdoms didn't get along." He spoke in a wry drawl.
Snorting, he shrugged. "I might be the most powerful person in Halo. Besides my brother, of course. I'm not particularly afraid of retribution." Granted, he'd actually said that Astra wasn't for sale, but the rest of what he said was true.
Again giving her an understanding look, he continued to lead her through the halls. "Probably the best way to feel about it." With that, he pushed open another door, revealing a modest library.
