Verdigris Ravine 'tis time that i fare from you

I didn’t really understand what I’d lost at the time. I barely remember her, to tell you the truth. The hardest part was watching my dad going through it. The older I got, the more I realized…

But Talisman didn’t want to dwell on this anymore, he realized. And when the silence between the two of them suddenly grew vaguely uneasy, he realized he didn’t really know what to say or do with awkward pauses in conversations. It was wild, how swiftly his unease mounted with every silent second. His first instinct was to fill it with something, anything, and then make an escape.

Well, I’m glad we got to meet, S’ari, but I think I’m gonna keep having a look around, Talis declared overly loudly, feeling as though he was fumbling a bit. I’m sure I’ll see you around, he added, cocking one rusty paw in farewell before hastening toward the nearest exit, cream shoulders cringing toward his ears.
