In the interest of avoiding any confrontations, Ahnasha let Monderyn close the door without another word. After the last time they had visited, she had no reason to doubt him. Although, she was glad that they had come as early as they had to speak to them; if they had waited until later in the week, there would have been a chance for them to run into her own family at the inn.

Ahnasha started off away from the door right away, just to make it less likely that Fendros' father might see them out of the windows. "Well, so far so good. If we're lucky, this will all go smoothly. And, I suppose it [i]will[/i] be nice to see your brother and sister again. Even your mother, if she comes along."

"Call it the 'wisdom of age', or whatever." Lorag answered. Just seeing Harriet in her more familiar Orc form was enough to flare up a small measure of anger within him again, but he kept it in check. "Besides, everyone else is goin' around tying up their loose ends. Figured I may as well too."

Lorag eyed the small cabin. If being around the other children in his pack was anything to go by, Narsi would not be keeping her ears to herself for long. Still, he had no intention of holding anything back in the conversation; he had not come here to maintain whatever illusions Harriet may or may not have. "If you think I've come here to try to be a father after lettin' you do all the hard work, then you're probably giving me [i]too[/i] much credit. I never asked for children, but I've still got my...responsibilities, I guess you'd call it. How much does she know? Does she know her options? Does she know about [i]you[/i]?"
