Korrin sighed in relief. That was a close one. Good thing Cretas gave Lemnia an easy concept to understand about rebirth. He only wished he thought of that one sooner. ”Oh well. Better luck next time with telling stories like that to her. Still, I’ll probably leave it to her mother. I’ll just try to find a way to keep them both safe.” He resolved in his head. He noted Cretas winked ever so slyly and he acknowledged it with a nod of his own.

”Well. I indeed look forward to many things. A good competition, a great adventure, and the chance to make a name for ourselves!” He declared with a wide grin upon his face. ”Here’s to making new friends, a brave and wonderful journey, and of course to the New World!” with that he polished off what little remained of his ale.

”Here’s to proving that bastard wrong as well. May whatever success I find be another sting of regret he feels for his actions against me. Desmiel willing I garner enough fame or honor to make a barb sharp enough for him to feel. If I fail in this... Mother and sisters forgive me.” So were his thoughts that swam with the ale. Pains he kept deep under his grin. Things that’ll be left alone, but not forgotten, the next morning as he prepares to go off to the New World with his newfound friends.
