The conversation spun out of her understanding again, but Kanon kept on listening. The familiar names scattered around were enough to maintain her interest. Her frown loosened when Bex finally looked her way, replacing it with a smile and nod to convey ‘it’s alright.

Soon, it became apparent that it was a talk about leaving. Some kind of search. Her heart sank a little bit, before she forced it back up. She would be glad that the two had found each other, and that they were getting ready to reunite with even more people. She’d be happy for them and be able to say goodbye without bitterness.

So it came as a surprise when Bex extended an offer to her. A very, very happy surprise. She immediately replied. “I’d love to join. Help, too, if possible. If anyone asks, I can say it’s a deity-related thing. That’s not too far off from the truth, right?”
