Loki calmed himself, looking to Maleficent to see that she looked guilty. He didn't want her to feel that way, it wasn't her fault. If she didn't know, then she didn't know. He thought that she may have the answer. It was okay. But Loki nodded, answering her question about Eric. Seeing her hand come up and felt it cup his cheek and ask about the black smoke. Loki was going to answer her when he heard a male voice. Turning his head to the voice and see a hooded figure walk into the room, removing his hood. Loki's eyes widened, not knowing if he wanted to believe what he saw before him. He felt his heart raise and beat close to his ribcage. "Eric!" He was obviously happy to see him again. He wanted to just go up to him and hug the man before him. But as he tried to get out of the bed by standing, he staggered a bit and almost lost his balance. He got up to quickly and felt a bit dizzy.
