[He reflexively takes the cloak: an angry flush stains his cheeks.

He doesn’t reply: his shoulders only hunch with a defensive frustration. It’s aimed at this woman, who does not understand him and could not even if he explained. At humans in general, who shun and ignore the Fade. At the boundaries of this world, which have him trapped here and made him useless and blind and thrown all his plans into chaos, and at the boundaries of his own world, which have rendered all life false and abominable.

And it’s frustration at himself, for making himself appear a recalcitrant fool.
