Sun Mote Copse I can't feel my face when I'm with you

There was a long silence after Elwood's question, leaving the words hanging in the air. That in itself was an answer; there wasn't anything that either one of them could say to explain just now not okay they were. Elwood simply sighed, and gave a gentle nod of his head as the quiet stretched between them for a few seconds longer.

Finley did speak up eventually, wondering aloud what they could do for their eldest son. He wasn't sure there was anything specific that would help Eljay; sadly, he suspected that Raven did not have any herbs that could heal a broken heart. But maybe she was onto something with her suggestion to have him talk to Rannoch. Fin was a counselor herself, but perhaps it would be more beneficial if Eljay talked to someone that wasn't his mom or dad.

"That might be a good idea, letting him talk through things with Rannoch. I don't know that it will fix things, but it certainly couldn't hurt," he mused.
