figure this all out. huh. vex says it, and vax’ildan realizes, for the duration of his time on this island, he’s never had an urge to figure it out. he doesn’t want to. figuring it out means saying goodbye to all of the people he’s learned to love, goodbye to shaun once again, leaving behind a second chance at life with some of these people.
he doesn’t want to say goodbye. he doesn’t want to figure it out.
he doesn’t have the heart to say this to vex’ahlia, so vax leads her wordlessly through the sand and back to the house he shares with his new friends. the houses are large and connected, and it’s a little obvious from the outside which one vax’ildan occupies. he takes her through the front door, keeping her hand clasped tightly in his.
“this is my home,” he says quietly, “i live here with shaun, and a drow named essek.” he can’t help the fondness in his voice when he mentions them both. “percy lives nearby. i... suspect you might want to see him soon?”
