Broken Boulder these frozen bones

He's not sure what draws him to the borders, weak and weary as he still is, but in retrospect he'll be glad for it. He is stronger than he's been, at least, and perhaps it's the scant amount of newfound energy that brings him out. His duties have fallen neglected lately, especially with the addition of Seabreeze to leadership — sometimes he feels like she's taken up some part of Delight, too. Or rather, she'd always possessed it, and Alarian is the one intruding now.
Or something like that. He's been so busy feeling insecure and lost with all the new changes in the Sanctuary, the losses and gains, it hasn't even occurred to him that anything would... come back. Especially not Queenie. He spots her from a distance, then spots Solomon — but he doesn't move. He halts, swallowing, and immediately knows this will be trouble. If she's back, if she wants to stay — none but Alarian will want to tell her no, he knows; Eris is dead, Zamael and Lily are gone, Ulf is gone, and Delight... oh, Delight.
He can only watch Queenie, knowing only one of them can stay within the borders and, terrifyingly, uncertain which outcome he would prefer.
