Janius frowned sympathetically. "There is no easy answer. We either return or we do not, the choice is in what is given up." Janius ran his fingers through his hair. "Or...well, I suppose there would be room for compromise, with a bit of work." He continued with cautious optimism. "Meesei and Sabine do have their powers, if only they could locate the tribe each time. If there was some way to do that, we could visit regularly without leaving everything behind. Do you think that could work?"
Fendros stood up promptly after Ahnasha, bending to pick up his tunic, giving it a harsh whip to remove much of the fur before sliding it over his head.
Meanwhile, Rhazii entered the room appearing neutral and collected, excepting his slightly wider than usual eyes. He was oblivious to what he interrupted.
Ahnasha's instructions were replied with nods at each line. "Absolutely," Rhazii answered. "I've never seen a pink Argonian before, and that woman was pink. All four were just like you described. The Suthay-raht woman even looked like an older version of you."
"Do you remember meeting any of them, Rhazii?" Fendros asked.
Rhazii paused for thought and then shook his head. "Not really. I only remember a few things, like the food, mother and grandmother hugging and crying..." he released his breath. "Not the faces, though."
Fendros smiled. "Well, you can relax," he said, patting Rhazii's shoulder. "They are friendly people. More friendly than my family. Just remember what we're hiding. You remember everything about that."
"Yeah," he half-grinned. "You don't need to tell me again. I've heard it so many times I might faint."
"Good. Let's go meet them. Hopefully we can catch them before they finish paying for their rooms."
