The boy was in the middle of writing a missive when their newest scion arrived. While everything, for the most part, was well and good with the scions, Alphinaud still had plenty of loose ends to tie. That whole ordeal with the Kolbolds left a sour taste, especially due to the horrors inflicted upon Ga Bu. While he was handling it better than his sister, Alphinaud didn't escape the entire ordeal unscathed. His dislike of the Primals is bordering on loathing now. He's grown weary of seeing countless people being swayed by the whims of their false deities over and over again. It's an issue that needs correcting but even with the Warrior of Light's aid, it seldom is.
He was in the middle of proofreading a lengthy draft when Ysayle arrives. The boy greets her with a smile, one that he reserves for his close allies and friends alone. Since their adventures through Coethras and beyond her, he's grown quite a bit in a spiritual sense despite not growing an inch physically. Gone is the arrogant little upstart replaced with a more humble but self-assured young man. It will be some years before his height catches up with the rest of him but for now, Alphinaud still has some of that boyish zeal in him.
"Well met, Ysayle! It's been too long." He says with a little grin as he puts down his pen. "Forgive me for not welcoming you sooner. I've been quite busy as of late much to my grievance." A sigh escapes Alphinaud as he stands to greet her properly.
"Welcome to the Rising Stones, the home and headquarters of the Scions of the Seventh Dawn." Feeling a bit cheeky, Alphinaud welcomes their newest scion with a bit of flourish in the form of a gentlemanly bow.
this works just fine! <3
