Hoshor Plains Forgiving's pretty hard

Oh.  Maia's ears tilted back a little awkwardly as he revealed what was bothering him, though she didn't get as uncomfortable as she might have even a year back.  A series of feeling fests had left her a little more equipped to dealing with others' issues, as ill equipped as she might be at actually solving them.  Still...

Do you know where they were going?  Or... do you need help?  She couldn't completely sidetrack her trip, but once she'd delivered her news, she wasn't opposed to keeping an eye out.  Especially because this area wasn't nearly so far as the Hollow had been.  Maybe they're just somewhere else?  Oh.  Oh wow.  Thank you, captain obvious.  She offered it with as much lightness as she could muster, though, current situation nonwithstanding.  She wasn't exactly at her emotional best either right now.
