That was definitely quite a collection of emotions the girl had for this 'Zeneth'. Perhaps he might try to untangle them in his own mind later, once things were more settled, but for the moment, the suggestion of walking and talking seemed the best option. "Alright," he said. "Come along with me then."

As they set off in pursuit again, he at least made an effort not to out pace the girl with his longer stride, despite being in hurry. "I don't disagree with you in principle, just so you know," he said. "And if sending him back would put him in danger, I'd definitely be willing to find another solution. But there have been too many incidents with mirrors recently for me to trust that he won't cause trouble- intentionally or otherwise- until I can confirm his reasoning and what he's capable of. And to do that, we'll need to find him and talk with him."
