Neverwinter Forest deepest forest, darkest wood

There was silence, broken only by the girl's lamenting; and then silence again, this time broken by Kilgitsuk.

You are allowed to be angry. He was not usually one to speak about emotions, and certainly tried to swallow his on a regular basis in order to appear as strong and as confident as is expected of a man. He does feel things, and in this moment he can see much of his own turmoil reflected back at him through Vaire; and he speaks for her, but also for himself, but in the guise of being helpful to another.

It is not fair. It is painful. It is painful in a way that goes beyond words! To love someone and not be with them, and have them choose another path, when you know yourself to be deserving of all of it. It is not a failing of your own, but their's; Vaire, there is nothing wrong with you. There is everything wrong with a mother who cannot sit still. And now it dawned upon Kilgitsuk how obvious it was: he did not speak of Lote alone, but Sakhmet.

I am sorry that she failed you. He states in the end, looking upon the girl with a tenderness he had never previously allowed of himself. For a moment Kilgitsuk wonders if he could have said something to Sakhmet to keep her here, to keep his family together — but by now it is too late.
