My lips curled as he brought up the topic himself. "I am--after all, we were raised in different circumstances."
He stopped talking again for almost a minute. "I heard from Zarfa that...that he was supposed to be dead."
"Perhaps; I didn't exactly read her...vision. She just told me bits and pieces."
"Did you really..." he stopped walking then, which prompted me to stop so he wouldn't get left behind. "Did you really meet his...his soul?"
I turned to look at him; he was staring at me with reddened eyes--perhaps it had been like that the moment he mentioned Valmeier's supposed death. I guessed he really did love his 'Brother Valmeier'.
"I did," I told him sincerely, looking into his eyes with a clear gaze. "I don't know how to convince you, and I don't think I need to. But if you want, I can tell you about all of his memory--although, you can also reason that I just read his memory rather than meeting him."
