As Belgond approached his childhood friend, those who knew him well would notice that something seemed... off about him. The normally brave and confident Explorer wannabe's ears were wilted as nervousness and doubt at away at him with the thumping of his little heart in his chest. 

Thankfully, Gale started the conversation off on a subject that Belgond knew well enough that he could bypass the confusing feelings plaguing him. "[color=00a651]Hey Gale.
