The Sunspire for fine something all people need

terance was only ever openly mopey to rannoch. to others he always tried to be friendly and responsive. of course, this excluded wraen, who seemed to lie somewhere in the middle of no real emotions and too much sharing-- to the point where their interactions sometimes aired on the hostile side. but, not always. so for him to put on a civil, happy face for treason was hardly news.

any other time of day when alone, terance might've looked rather pitiful. but, again, he was trying this time around.

terance frowned, remembering his absence. he was with ibis and okeanos-- and looking back he did value the time spent with his children but, if it was all for naught he would've rather been at the vale. besides, he always loved a good confrontation-- it was a good time to be petty. but he shrugged, pushing down the inner turmoil. "someone had to watch the kids," he said, giving a gentle sniff, "i heard all about it-- it sounds like they'll be keeping to themselves." 

he paused. "they better, anyway."
