Pursing his lips, Loren's expression grew thoughtful. "Good question." He rattled off the distance he estimated it was. Then he gave her a worried look. "It was part of a fairly extensive tunnel system though. At some point we should map it." His expression grew slightly awkward.
Nodding at her limits, he clasped his hands behind his back. "I can manage with a few guards, I'd imagine. I don't think the Sea of Glass could support an extensive structure anyway, so the outpost would need to be fairly minimal." Pausing, he waited for her to respond.
When she asked why he was uncertain of their relationship, he hesitated for a moment. Then he sighed. "Because I agreed to serve as the Grand Healer, then proceeded to take some time for myself?" He kept his voice carefully neutral.
