"Jen. What are you doing here?" Lucius looked at the woman with wide eyes.
The last thing he expected was to see the adventuring party he spent so much time with out here. They weren't Marked Ones, so why were they here? Did they volunteer for the war? Rena had mentioned something about coming out here, but where was she?
"Hey kid," Jen said in the same teasing tone he had gotten used to over their time questing together. It was rather comforting… "I heard you've been up to a lot out here. You're strong."
"Yeah, that's what happens when you spend every day of your life fighting for it." He shot back. He found himself realizing he had missed these back and forths.
"Hiya kid, how you been?" Paul asked. He broke his normally silent demeanor and flashed him a soft smile.
Lucius was happy they were here, but why? He could not hold it in any longer. "Why are you here?"
