[Eugenie is walking around slowly, shaking her head as she goes] And once again, I find myself in an unfamiliar place. I do wonder if I will ever return home, and lead a happy life with my family...

...Mother? Why...?

Hello, Gailardia...My, you seem younger than the other Gailardias I've spoken to!

I'm 15... [utterly confused] Are you... really here?

[Laughs softly] It seems that way, Does it not?

But you died and... Mary died and... [takes a shaky breath]

[Wonders whether it's a good idea for her to touch him...] But I am here now, Gailardia...

But you're going to disappear again. I just know it... [inches a bit closer though]

Is it alright if I touch you, Gailardia?

...I don't know. I... usually don't like it when females touch me. But then again, you're my mother.

I am aware of that fear...[But nevertheless, she lightly threads her fingers on Guy's hair]

[freezes and doesn't move for quite some time before relaxing a little bit]

Is it alright?

I... guess. I still feel like running away but it's... not as bad when other girls are close. [sighs and lets his shoulders slump]

[She will just settle with petting his hair, though she does want to hold him]

[and he's going to be brave/foolish and leans against her]

[Smiles, and nuzzles him instead of going for a hug] You're still so young, Gailardia. I am sorry I wasn't there for you as you grew up, but I promise that I will be here for you now.

[sniffles a bit] It wasn't your fault Mother... It wasn't like you chose to die. Right? [have a tiny and shaky smile]

[Kisses the top of his head] At least I know that my little boy survived. That's all that I could ever want.

[now you made him cry] But Mother. What about everyone else? I failed to protect them...

You had no control over what happened, Gailardia, none of us did. You hold no responsibility over the death of the citizens of Hod, so you should feel no guilt or helplessness.

[have an armful of your sniffling son]

[And finally moves to hug him, not being able to stand his sadness] You were just a innocent child...you didn't have to protect anyone. It was not your fault, Gailardia, and like I said you being alive is proof that at least we did our job of keeping you safe.

[returns the hug and sobs softly] I'm sorry Mother... You're so glad that I survived but I... I...

But what, Gailardia?

I didn't want to leave you all alone... I'd have been happier if I'd been with you all...
