[Wait, what? For a moment, it feels like his heart stops outright. He had tried to set aside all else to focus on finding shelter, but hearing that--he's not sure what to think, let alone how to feel. A sick, bitter rush of homesickness, an uncertain flicker (unfounded, no doubt--and what is it even for, exactly?) of hope, pure bewilderment, the lingering grip of paranoia and hesitation..... Who are the Mageseekers, and why had they wanted her? In what world do dragons look like her? Should he..... say something? Offer sympathies, at least?
Ordinarily, if he were less out of sorts, he's sure (he thinks, he hopes) he would be more poised in the face of such a revelation. It's not so strange, after all, is it? If the people here come from countless different worlds, odds are good he would meet someone ostensibly of his own kind eventually.Logically, he knows that--but being abruptly confronted with it like this, so soon after waking up and receiving such dire news about the state of the worlds? He's left at a loss.]
