Stone Circle There is nothing holding me back

Nikai smiled, glad that he could help Arlette out. It was amazing how much of himself he recognised in her even though he wasn't Valette's biological son and therefore shared no connections with Arlette by blood, that he knew of. Maybe upbringing had more to do with how you turned out than how you were born, Nikai concluded.

Nikai nodded as Arlette mentioned having a difficult time with Mawk. He felt much the same, but he hoped his words could inspire some sort of hope in his sister anyway.

She concluded with offering him help whenever he needed therapist talks, too. Nikai smiled softly, appreciating this reaching out muchly, and said: Thanks, Arlette. That means a lot to me. I guess that your siblings won't all like me just because I'm their brother, because you haven't met me before, haven't seen me when you were growing up. It's good to have a sister like you.
