"Peace? Ehhh..." Tal shrugged, his scowl tugging at the corners of his mouth again as he looked uncomfortably away from Finn's gaze. "I'm not that naive." Mostly. Sometimes. "I know a lotta people are riled up. But I was hoping, at least not... not open war, you know?"
He retrieved his hand as quickly as Finn and let it fall back to his side where his fingers resumed their anxious drumming against his thigh. "The Kraai's alright," Tal acceded grudgingly. "There's better beer at The Blind Ursur. But I guess if you got a family..." His frown faded a little further. "So uh... is it similar to your tower?" The question was awkwardly thrown out as Tal looked up at a curving stone support for an excuse to not meet Finn's eyes.
