Jigano seemed more than familiar enough with the place to make Caiside feel comfortable in following his lead. He sat down across from his new friend, leaning forward to rest his chin on the back of his hand. There were so many questions swirling around his head now that he had someone who might answer them. He supposed it would be easier to start by answering the one that had been asked of him, and took a deep breath,starting slowly.”Well, I... know very little. There are many things I could guess at, this place is similar enough to my home, but the only things I know for sure are the those I saw while wandering.” Caiside pursed his lips and thought back on the time he had spent alone, the things he had seen on those long nights.
It had been so much quieter than what he was used to. Not only because he was alone, for the first time in years, but because the trees didn’t speak to him here. At least not without his magic. The loss still stung him to think about directly, so instead he spoke again, though not before the emotion had had the chance to flash across his face.“It’s... little things that are strange. I have seen soft lights moving in the woods at night, and the outer edges of the trees make me ache, for no reason I can tell. And you are not surprised that I am not from here, so I can’t be the first, can I?” It was the first question of many, but Caiside caged the rest behind his teeth and looked up into Jigano’s face, giving him a chance to respond.
