Sylvari stared at Videl, awaiting a more heartfelt response after his initial stoic reaction. When it was not forthcoming, the justiciar lowered her half veil again, set her jaw and looked ahead, frowning slightly. If only things were simple, if she was just a girl and he was just a boy. But she was a justiciar and he was a man who loved too hard. The chasm between their yearning hearts seemed to stubborn for either to brave.
Once again, Sylvari tried for a smile, but this time, she did not even try to infuse it with sincerity. "Given your bent towards sickness on the open waves, I suppose that's good sense. Very well, I shall deal with the harbormaster."
Before too much time had passed, the group reached the port and blessedly found a ship that left in only two days. The caravan master assured Sylvari that they would be safe within the city and that he would be passing along his regards to the guild. The justiciar bid him a kind farewell and retreated to where Videl was already sat atop Lumi, ready for their next travel.
Sylvari wasn't sure what the future held for them: if their easy camaraderie could ever be restored with its repeated and continuous fracturing. However, she buried these fears deep within herself, smiled to her friend and set off, the setting sun at their backs.
