I cannot know what you went through, in your nightmare, as you cannot know what Vil and I went through in our own, but I know it has done much to change the both of us, and can only imagine that whatever you went through might have changed you too.
But you have been around me for much of your life, and while we can never have a casual relationship as liege and loyal servant, I still like to think that we are friendly, and that you can confide in me if you should ever need to.
It is rather distracting, the way you act differently around me lately in any case. I don't wish to pry, so I will not ask you anything further, but know that I will listen if you want to speak. You may be my retainer but a king is meant to serve his people, and you are one of my people too.
