Before that we’d been fighting, and it would have been awkward? To say anything. And then after that we had to deal with Opal and the crown - and that was at least partially, if not mostly my fault for wanting to keep the stupid thing, so there’s that. And then you got called to Zephrah, and when Fearne and I went with you, you told us about Will, and I…I didn’t think I could ever tell you then.
[ Especially after learning more about Will, and realizing that he could never measure up to the man that Orym had loved and lost. ]
