Seren
Delighted, Seren accepted the treat and munched away on the toasted seeds, humming happily at the lovely taste. It was pumpkin alright - no different from any other gourd she'd ever tasted. Apparently the vampiric part made no difference.
"Maybe we should try, for a bit," she suggested, still mulling over the idea of happiness and retreating from all that was grave and dark and difficult. "Leave the difficult thinking to our esteemed leaders, and just... do what we want, until they ask for help. I could focus on training and that expedition - the fun parts of it - and you... could bake cookies, perhaps? And help me get better at fighting." Seren smiled at the man; they still had a spar planned from earlier promises, and she would be more than happy to accept critique on her shooting with her shiny new bow.
The more she thought about it, the more reluctant she was beginning to feel about returning to Stormbreak. It had its upsides... but there were dark shadows looming over that place, ones she was not so sure she had the courage to face yet.
"Deimos... are you done with your task for my mother, now? This whole thing, the overturning of Halo... it was her task to you, wasn't it?"

Battle born they send us
Covered in our noble blood
