Neverwinter Forest No one ever told me grief felt like fear

Mal wish he had answers. Or even just something reasonable to say beyond what he had, A lot of people just don't make sense, I think. If he's just shocked over that news, well.. maybe he'll come back and explain himself. But if not.. Well, we'll find others. And improve ourselves. Either way, we'll get Simmik back, it's not a question. And hopefully everyone else, too. He was getting nervous about Caerus having been gone when he got back, but it hadn't been that long yet... He was an adult now, so he should be kind of safe, but Mal was paranoid. Where'd he go? Either way, he wasn't going to bring that up now.

As Cam started to walk away, Mal gave him a light headbutt to his shoulder, You know where to find me if you need someone to talk to. But since he was already leaving, Mal wasn't going to metaphorically sit on him and force him to. That was a weird thing that had just happened, he could understand needing time alone to clear his head.
