Stone Circle Your brother has returned

Clay decided after West's few words that, frankly, he didn't have the energy to argue with his brother. So thus he ignored him the boy, turning his head and ears away to look at his mother, who was now lightly scolding them. To be honest, Clay didn't know how he felt about being scolded by his mother when (he thought) he was an adult, and looked down at the ground with his pooled gem eyes. Everything was weird to him.

"Sorry mother," he replied with a muffled tone. He had expected Valette to then cart him off to explore the territory, but it seemed she had other plans in mind. He gawked as not only she advised his brother to show him around, but also spilled that he had been kidnapped. He winced at the words, and his face became hot as he turned even farther to look away from West.

"I think I can sniff it out, thank you." he hesitantly laughed.
