"Well, it... I... I think I just agree with the way my family does things. Even given the fact I had no say in it when it happened. I don't see that being wrong... although I kind of do... but not all that much. Yeah, I mostly agree. It is hard putting it into words", Harol explained himself, or at least made a crude attempt in doing so. He noticed that Freya had placed her daggers aside, but did not pay all that much attention to it. Instead he extended both of his arms before him and stretched his shoulders while yawning under his breath (that meant he closed his eyes for a moment and took a deep breath more or less through his teeth). "But I'm sure I'll figure how to put it soon. It surprised me but I'll live with it. I've done so for quite a few years already have I not?"

Harol shifted a bit farther away from Freya and fell on his back, now stretching with his hands extended beyond his head, and then moved them behind his neck. "It will all come together eventually. There is no use wondering how things could be for [i]me[/i] had this ritual not taken place. I'm content as is. I'll need to think about it on a larger scale, but now I'm feeling fine. Helps when you can talk about it with someone, so thanks for lending an ear." Harol rubbed the tattooless side of his face with his other hand and then placed it back behind his neck. He had said what he had to say on the subject.

But then again, what would he do now? He most likely should now focus on getting his opinion on this full matter clear, but then again focusing one's thoughts on something puzzling was not always the solution. Most often he had figured out problems when doing completely unrelated tasks and letting his thoughts wander free... he also should really continue studying, given his gift since birth permitted him to do it. Hell, if nobody else from the house Arkdal had survived, he might just as well be the last mage of such capability... after all, even if he found someone who would have a child with him, he would not know how the ritual was done. Now was not exactly the correct time to be thinking about procreation though, that could be a matter of importance after this whole crisis with the king was over. Now he had to have his hopes on surviving to the next day.
