Moonsong Glacier a dream within a dream

He had noticed her slurred speech and would not have made any comment (or connection) without that show of her open mouth. Glaukos remembered bits and pieces of his time within Moonglow and vaguely, his rescue. He accepts the name without issue. Tooth or claw, he is always someone's weapon.

Avicus names her home and Glaukos hears it wrong - deems it Redhill in his head - which isn't far from the truth. He grunts an acknowledgement; then is surprised by Avicus' admission. Why should she care he is alive? Maybe because it cost her that tongue, which was quite an investment.

Are you surprised? She hadnt sounded such, but he thought to lighten the mood with his own attempt at humor - dry, serious, and grim.
