"Did you pursue the bear?" Ruenna asked, and he chuckled.

No, I'm not quite that foolish. I believe I was hallucinating. She said she was attracted by the ruckus and found me near the border. She brought me elsewhere to give me medical assistance, He explained further, not wanting to go into detail about the hallucination of his mother he had or even remember it.

"It's a shame you weren't able to send word," She said next.

Then, Kavik spoke again: "I'm glad to see that you were able to heal from such an awful wound. You proved yourself loyal before, and since it seems you didn't intentionally desert us, I'm willing let you back in." Corvus bowed his head in gratitude. Thankfully, his long-awaited trip here wasn't for naught.

Thank you. Those two words were rare from the shadow, but they best conveyed how he felt.
