Captain Kursha Vidari
Kursha stayed quiet while Elidae spoke. His eyes never left her face, as he absorbed every word with a kind of intense focus uncharacteristic of him. This was the reality. Not just his, but one he shared with the yellowblood sitting beside him. He had to pay attention.
Elidae's words became choked, restrained sobs worn in shoulders. Kursha hesitated, the distance between them suddenly vast and unapproachable. Then he shifted towards the yellowblood and gently wrapped his arms around her.
“Hey... it's okay,” he murmured, close to her spongeclot. Hoping like hell he knew what he was doing, he ran his fingers through her hair and stroked the back of her head. “I'm not going anywhere. You're right—I've been an a*****e. I'm not gonna abandon you, though.”
