Remi took the mug appreciatively, before glancing down at Aoife. "You are not missing out. I did not make this wine, so it probably is not very good anyways." He told the baby with a grin. Not pausing as Ronin had, the alchemist shrugged as the wine flowed easily down his throat. "Yes it is a stupid question Ronin, but thank you so much for reminding me that I have no way of knowing exactly what has been taken." Remi said with a wry grin. "It was Ludo who did it. I lost something that it gave me, and I suppose this is my punishment. What I do know is that it has taken memories of my mother." This he said with a palpable emotion, though it was hard to say what it was. It wasn't quite sadness, as Remi couldn't remember her to be sad about it. It was a strange melancholy, to miss something you couldn't remember, but Remi felt it acutely. "Also a man called Samuel who I was apparently..." Remi's cheeks flushed with colour as he placed the mug to his lips again and drank deeply. Clearing his throat, he continued.
