Truly if she had not stolen what is mine, the Fog would be dead by my hand already.

[Eridanus' lips peel back from his teeth, his smile turned into a rictus of disgust as he thinks upon that loathsome entity.]

Before, ripping holes through space was simple. The only thing that would keep me from visiting you, my dear, is if doing so put my lord's safety on the battlefield at risk.

[Which, really, Lucius is an eleven thousand year old god-blessed, undying super soldier. So he can probably manage without his archmage for a bit.

He does step forward however, and smooths his claws over her ruffling feathers.]

Did you think I make my vows lightly, sweet girl?

[ This shouldn't be a surprise to Riley. Many people have strange, unpredictable powers, things beyond her wildest dreams.

But she never imagined they would be used to her advantage. Something to...work out, for her. With a watery smile, she shakes her head quickly. ]

O-oh, n-no, I didn't, I just... [ She can't articulate it. She just forces her smile wider. ] No. Never.

I could never forget you, my dear.

[The hand that had smoothed over her feathers like a doting parent, instead pulls Riley's face to plant firmly in his chest.

He continues to pet over her feathered hair soothingly.]

No need to worry your pretty little head, okay?

[ Riley doesn't fight it, not one bit. The amount of trust she's placed in Eridanus is frankly unreal, unlike any trust she's felt before.

Like this, she's safe. She's secure.

She just nods against him. ]

Okay, dad.
