Once more Alessandro remained silent as the fae spoke, he tried not to register emotions upon his face but with no practice of hiding anything but his own upset it was rather obvious when he was surprised, confused and perhaps a little concerned. It was not a normal upbringing at all for a child and it sounded both ruthless and cold and yet Rei spoke of it as if it were nothing different from the normal. Of course, to Rei it was nothing outside of the unusual, when the fae came to another pause the Prince allowed his unwavering attention to drop to his plate, a soft sound leaving his throat indicating his uncertainty on what to say. He finished his meal and then took his goblet in both hands, swirling the liquid in the glass for a moment before taking a swig. Words still seemed to fail him and after a moment of trying to figure out a polite way of saying 'so you killed your adopted family?' he decided to take another sip and gesture for Rei to continue.
