Qeya River c is for clara who wasted away

For @Anselm and/or @Ezra, no obligation if you're busy or it doesn't work for you! Continued from this post, just wanted to thread out Gideon reuniting with them and learning about Skaigona. Lmk if you have any issues with the assumptions herein! <3

But how? he asked, pulling back from his brother long enough to cast a searching gaze toward Anselm. So much had happened, but the whole time, Gideon had taken comfort in believing his family was safe at home so long as he wasn't there to attract Isra's morbid curiosity. He thought of his mom and Ezra constantly and longed to see them again. He never would have imagined reuniting with his brother here of all places.

What about mom? Where's Amadeo? That name was accompanied with the darkening of his features and a flattening of tone suggesting he hoped the answer involved a heart attack or another accident of the fatal variety. He didn't want Amadeo anywhere near Anselm or Sun Eater; he asked only because he was dying to see his mother again, but feared Heda would never have left Rivenwood without him.
