[ He does not believe her to be someone who craves power for power's sake, to say nothing of the amount she suggests. So when she mentions that consuming the stone would transform her, his expression is, notably, concerned.
Power, he's found, does not corrupt, but instead reveals; and he can only imagine (and fail to imagine) for what she needed such an amount.
Nevertheless, it is evident she wishes to break from this dream, and the stone she sought to use was the key. Except, now it is... inert? malfunctioning? Whatever is going on with it, it's not working as she'd believed. No wonder she is devastated. Reverin does not abide by one world's rules, but by calling her back, it seems the dream has taken not only power from her, but the hope it symbolized.
She does not deserve this cruelty placed upon her. Resentment for her circumstance charges his words. His tone cools to something low, powerful, and rumbling like a glacier carving through a valley, with a quiet, ancient intensity reflected in his gaze. ]
By taking the stone's power, this dream robbed you of choice.
