LOREN

Now that Loren was paying more attention to Remi, the summoner was starting to get a bit of a spillover from the other man’s link. Frowning, the Launceleyn tapped a finger against his glass before he shook his head. ”But you do have it. More of it than anyone I’ve ever met.” Tilting his head, he smiled gently at the alchemist. ”Do you think you’ll ever get used to it? Because...I know how you got it was unpleasant. But...it can be a gift, too.” The words came out quietly and gently.

Brow furrowed, Loren took another sip. Then he stared into his glass, trying to formulate his thoughts. ”I’m confused. You said you’ve been holing yourself up with Ronin and Aoife, working on your wagon, didn’t you?” He glanced up, trying to catch Remi’s eyes. ”Are these days not the ones you were hoping for, then?” There was a little bit of concern in the Launceleyn’s words, but mostly he was trying to understand.

At least it was easy enough to understand the source of the alchemist’s unease. So the summoner changed the subject, his tone suddenly cheerfully ignoring all the awkwardness from earlier. ”What else...I joined the Loreseekers. Oh, and I made some improvements to the Fields, installed an irrigation system.”
