"Come on Kiara. I think poor Vanitri's not quite right in the head after what happened, and now he wants to gossip about you behind your back. He can't very well do that if you're not here, you know? Why don't we just go to the other room."
"If he's affected and a bit touched, doesn't that mean he might be dangerous? Tenebrynn lost his powers because his memory is gone, but Vanitri is still strong with a sword--I don't want my husband to be hurt."
*Laynie frowns.*
"I know Vanitri--he would never hurt a friend like that. It doesn't matter how messed up he was from memory loss."
"Frankly, I think you're both wrong. He doesn't agree with your prognosis and he doesn't trust any of us. Can't you see the look in his eyes? But why not Tenebrynn?"
"Because Tenebrynn also has the memory loss," Laynie nods, "Still...that makes me sad. Do you want to break y heart, Vanitri? Ah well, come on Kiara, let's head off."
